UK Auto Locksmiths can offer a much cheaper alternative, and they'll have the latest software and equipment to help you out.

They can provide flip keys, remotes and even Fobs. They will also be equipped to assist you in the programming of any 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 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 car seat key , transistor and resonator, all these parts make up the key's circuit.


Immobilisers

When car immobilisers began to become more popular in the late nineties car theft figures began to fall, but thieves are always trying to find ways to get around security systems. The initial immobilisers were bypassed by using a scanner to find the chip's coding and then copying it onto the blank key. However, technology has evolved and thieves have had to come up new ways to take advantage of security systems.

Fortunately, the majority of immobilisers we sell and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. This means that they have been tested and approved by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organization is the grading and certification system for automotive aftermarket alarm and security devices, which includes car immobilisers.

If the Thatcham approved immobiliser device is activated it will send a coded signal the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which blocks the engine from starting unless the correct key is present. This means that if a car has been "hot wired" after entry the engine will be cease to function within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.

As with any computer immobiliser, the immobiliser can develop problems. Sometimes the internal battery or key fob may need to be replaced. It is recommended to hire an expert do the work and make sure that everything is installed correctly and is working.

Transponders

A transponder is an instrument that sends back an identifying signal upon being questioned. This allows for the separation between aircrafts and signals an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is using an active radar system. The information that the transponder transmits back is different depending on the kind of system.

Transponders are also present on spacecrafts and satellites, allowing them to connect with Earth systems like cell phone networks, or other communication networks. They receive signals at a range frequencies, and then transmit the signals using a different spectrum like repeaters in terrestrial cell phone networks work.

Often sophisticated passive transponders may be located on aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide navigational information like the aircraft's position, speed and altitude. Air traffic controllers utilize the information from these transponders manage flight routes and ensure security.

Many personal keys contain transponder chips as well as aircraft transponders. These chips are inactive and do not require batteries. This lets the ECU to read the signal of the transponder whenever it is inserted in the ignition lock.

The flight deck of the majority of airplanes contains a switch that pilots can press to turn their transponders off or off. They can also choose an "ident" mode that allows the transponder to transmit its unique squawk number and help it stand out on an air traffic control screens.
