Keys
A lost car key is an everyday occurrence and can cause a huge problem. However, getting a new key from a dealer could be expensive. UK Auto Locksmiths will offer an alternative that is less expensive and use the most modern tools and software to assist. All you need is a VIN number and evidence of ownership to enable them to perform the task. The other information they will require is the type of key you require. They can provide remotes, flip keys and even Fobs. They can also help you create 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 key duplication cost 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
As car immobilisers became popular in the last decade, car thefts began to decrease, however, thieves are always searching for ways to bypass security systems. The early immobilisers could be avoided by using a scanner to locate the code on the chip and copying it onto a blank key. But the technology has advanced and thieves are forced to think of new tricks.
Fortunately, the majority immobilisers we offer and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. This means they have been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This not-for-profit organisation is the grading system and approval system for automotive aftermarket alarm and security equipment, including car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved system is activated, it will send a signal coded to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle which prevents the engine from starting if it does not have the proper key. This means that if the car is "hot wired" following entry it will stop working within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.
Like any computer that is used, the immobiliser could develop issues. Sometimes the internal battery or the key fob will require replacement. It is best to have a professional do the work and ensure that everything is properly installed and functions.
Transponders
A transponder is a device that sends back an identification signal when it is interrogated. It identifies the aircraft to air traffic control if it is in an active radar system and helps to maintain the distance between aircrafts. The information that the transponder transmits to the air traffic control system varies according to the type of system.
Transponders are also present on spacecrafts and satellites, allowing them to connect with Earth systems, such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals on a variety of frequencies, and then transmit the signals on a different spectrum similar to how repeaters on land-based cell phone networks operate.
Often sophisticated passive transponders may be located on aircraft. They monitor the status of flight and provide navigational information such as the aircraft’s position speed, altitude, and speed. Air traffic controllers rely on the information from these transponders manage the flight path and ensure security.
In addition to transponders for aircraft, a lot of personal keys include a transponder chip. These chips don't require batteries and are purely passive. This allows the ECU to read the signal of the transponder when it is put into the ignition lock.
Most airplanes have a switch on the flight deck that enables pilots to turn on or off their transponders. They can also select an "ident" mode, which enables the transponder's unique squawk code, which helps it stand out on an air traffic control screens.
