Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are mini-circuits inside your key that communicate with your car's immobilizer. When the key is switched on, the chip sends a code to the Body Control Module (BCM) of the vehicle. If the ID code matches that stored in the BCM memory the immobilizer will be turned off and the engine will start. If the ID code does not match, the security lamp will turn on and your car won't be able to start.

Transponders aren't perfect, however, as car thieves have evolved over time to find ways to bypass security systems to prevent theft. Having a spare key with functioning transponders can help to prevent this from occurring.

Smart Keys

Smart keys aren't just an awesome convenience but they also make it hard for thieves to get into your vehicle. Instead of broadcasting the same frequency signal similar to traditional key fobs smart keys send out different encrypted signals every when they unlock doors remotely or open the trunk. A computer inside your car then recognizes the changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the right key is in line with the new signal.

A BMW smart key, for example is equipped with a tiny LCD touchscreen that performs the standard functions of a regular key fob (locking, unlocking and keyless start), Fiat Key but also gives the option to store personal driver settings, turn off sunroofs or windows, and even instruct your car to auto park inside the key. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.

Despite this additional layer of security, there are ways for smart keys to be compromised. If someone in your vicinity receives low frequency signals sent between your smart device and your vehicle and they gain access to your vehicle (or at least try to) by spotting these signals while you're away from your vehicle like at a gas station or Fiat Key restaurant.

The good news is most smart keys come with a backup battery that is activated if the main battery fails. Many smart key batteries are quickly replaced and don't typically require special tools.
