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, seat arona key cover all these parts make up the key's circuit.

Immobilisers

The number of car thefts began to decline when car immobilisers began to become popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However thieves are always on the lookout for ways to bypass security systems. The first immobilisers could be avoided by using a scanner to find the code on the chip and copying it onto a blank key. But the technology has advanced and thieves have had to devise new tricks.

Luckily, the majority of immobilisers we offer and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means they've been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This not-for-profit organization is the grading system and approval system for automotive aftermarket alarm and security devices, including car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved immobiliser is activated, it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which stops the engine from starting unless the key that is required is present. This means that if the vehicle has been "hot wired" following entry it will cease to function within 30 seconds, rendering it impossible to start.

Transponders

A transponder is a device which transmits an identifying signal when interrogated. This signals the aircraft's location to air traffic control if it is on an active radar system, and helps maintain the distance between aircrafts. The identifying information sent back by the transponder can differ based on the type of system used.

Transponders can also be found in satellites and space vehicles to communicate with Earth-based systems, such as cell phone networks and other networks for communication. They receive signals at different frequencies and then retransmit the signals using a different spectrum similar to how repeaters in cell phone networks function.

The most sophisticated passive transponders are typically found on aircrafts. They monitor flight status and provide navigational information such as the aircraft’s position, speed and altitude. Air traffic controllers rely on the information from these transponders control flight routes and ensure safety.

In addition to aircraft transponders some personal keys include a transponder chip. These chips do not require batteries and are purely passive. This allows the ECU to read the signal from the transponder when it's placed in the ignition lock.

The flight deck of many aircrafts is equipped with a switch pilots can activate to switch their transponders on or off. They can also select a "ident" mode that lets the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk codes and makes it stand out on the busy air traffic control screen.
