Keys that are chipped Keys

If your Renault comes with transponder, it will only turn on when you insert the correct key. This prevents car theft by stopping the engine from starting when the wrong key is used.

The chip is equipped with an ID number that is matched to the one stored in the car's computer system. When you insert the new key into the ignition the chip sends a message to the immobiliser, which examines whether the code on your chip matches with the one in the system. If the match is successful, your vehicle will allow fuel to flow, or turn on the starter motor.

If the key fails to send an appropriate signal, or is not recognised by the immobiliser, the car will stop starting and go into the safety lockout mode. This typically lasts between 3 and 4 minutes. When this happens, you will not be allowed to drive your car and will need a new key.

Remote Keys

Remote keys are a form of key that has a remote control unit incorporated inside the head of the key.

The key blade on these kinds of keys does not have a cut along the edge like traditional flat metal keys and they come with a unique serial number. These keys are designed to replace the traditional flat metal keys. These keys are harder to take, and are usually only used by car owners. They can be programmed at the dealership or by locksmiths using a diagnostic tool.

Many people believe that keys fobs with transponder functions and transponder keys are the identical, they're not. Knowing the difference between the two types of keys can help to understand how they function. While a transponder key can be used to unlock the car doors but it also serves to start the engine. It does this by sending an engine signal by a microchip within the key. The microchip then recognizes the vehicle's unique number and shut off the immobilizer.

Remember that a dealer will only program the remote if you present an acceptable proof of registration or ownership. This will prevent thieves from jotting down the VIN in order to visit an area part shop to program the key fob for an alternative vehicle. Some online stores may offer to program your key fob for you, but they will likely ask for your proof of ownership before shipping it to you.
