They can also assist you to programme any new keys.
Remotes
Most Seat drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement keys from a dealer is expensive and time consuming. This is because most dealers will programme the key using the car's computer which will need to be reset. However, many people buy second-hand keys off the internet that are not programmed to their car. This can be a much cheaper alternative to going to the dealer. But, these key will not start the car because they will not have a transponder chip inside them. You can see the chip (yellow) in this picture below, it is a Dual Inline Package or DIP 18 pin chip. There are also a diode, transistor and resonator, all these parts make up the key's circuit.
Immobilisers
When car immobilisers began to become more popular in the latter part of the nineties, car theft rates began to drop, but thieves are always trying to find ways to get around security systems. They were able get through the early immobiliser systems using scanners to find the transponder's code chip and then copying it to the blank key, but since then, technology has advanced and they've been forced to come up with new tricks.
Luckily, the majority of immobilisers we sell and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This not-for-profit organization is the grading system and approval system for automotive aftermarket alarm and security equipment, including car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved immobiliser is activated, it will send a coded message to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, preventing the engine from starting unless the correct key is present. This means that if the car has been "hot wired" following entry it will cut out within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.
Like computers, the immobiliser may develop issues, and sometimes the battery inside or the key fob may need replacing. It is recommended to have an expert do the work, as they will ensure everything is installed correctly and is working.
Transponders
Transponders transmit an identification signal back when it is being probed. This helps to maintain a clear line between aircraft and identifies an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is operating a radar system. The information the transponder transmits back is different according to the kind of system.
Transponders are also present in spacecraft and satellites to communicate with Earth systems, such as cell phone networks, or other networks of communication. They receive signals at a range frequencies, and then transmit the signals in a different frequency like repeaters on land-based cell phone networks work.
Sophisticated passive transponders are often found on aircrafts. They monitor the status of flight and provide navigational information like the aircraft's position along with speed and altitude. Transponders transmit information that air traffic controllers can utilize to control flight paths and ensure safety.
A lot of personal keys have a transponder chip as well as aircraft transponders. These chips don't require batteries, and are therefore passive. This allows the ECU to read the transponder signal when it is placed in the ignition lock.
The majority of aircrafts have a switch on the flight deck that allows pilots to turn on and off their transponders. They can also select an "ident" mode that allows the transponder transmit its unique squawk codes and makes it stand out the crowded air-traffic control screen.
