Keys

UK Auto Locksmiths can offer an affordable alternative and they'll have the most up-to-date software and equipment to assist you.

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.

seat leon spare key cost of cars began to decline when car immobilisers began to become popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However criminals are always on the lookout for ways to evade security systems. They were able get around the earlier immobiliser systems using a scanning tool to find the transponder's code chip and then copying it to a blank key, but since then, technology has evolved and they've been forced to come up with new ways to get around them.

Fortunately, the majority immobilisers that we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means they've been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organization is the grading system and approval system for aftermarket alarms and security equipment, including car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved system is activated, it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle that prevents the engine from starting if it does not have the proper key. This means that if a car has been "hot wired" after entry and the engine is cut out within 30 seconds, rendering it impossible to start.

Of course, just like computers, the immobiliser may be affected and the internal battery or the key fob could require replacement. The best option is to always hire an expert to complete the task as this will ensure that everything is installed correctly and works.

Transponders


A transponder transmits an identifying signal back when it is questioned. This helps keep a distinct line between aircrafts and also identifies an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is using an active radar system. The information used to identify the aircraft transmitted by the transponder is different based on the type of system used.

Transponders are also utilized in space vehicles and satellites to communicate with Earth-based systems, such as cell phone networks and other networks for communication. They receive signals at various frequencies and then retransmit the signals in a different frequency like repeaters in land-based cell phone networks function.

Often sophisticated passive transponders can be found on aircraft. They are used to monitor flight status and provide information on navigation such as the aircraft's position as well as speed, altitude and route. Transponders are able to provide information that air traffic controllers can use to manage flight paths and ensure safety.

A lot of personal keys have transponder chips in addition to transponders for aircraft. These chips are non-active and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to read the transponder's signal when it is put into the ignition lock.

Most airplanes have a switch on the flight deck, which allows pilots to turn on or off their transponders. They can also select an "ident" mode, which enables the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk code, which helps it stand out on an air traffic control screen.
