Replacement Car keys
Car keys are used to start and operate a vehicle. In most modern cars, the key is electronic and communicates with the car’s onboard computer through a transponder chip. This chip sends a signal to the car’s computer, allowing it to start the engine.
There are several different types of car keys, including:
Traditional metal keys: These are the oldest type of car key and are still used on some older cars. They have a simple design and are cut to match the locks on a specific vehicle.
These keys have a small chip embedded in them, which sends a signal to the car’s computer, allowing it to start the engine. These keys are more secure than traditional metal keys, as they cannot be easily copied.
Remote keyless entry (RKE) keys: These keys have buttons on them that allow you to lock and unlock the doors and trunk of your vehicle remotely. They also have a transponder chip, so they can start the engine as well.
Smart keys: These keys are similar to remote keyless entry keys, but they can also automatically unlock the doors and trunk when the key is in close proximity to the vehicle. Some smart keys also have a push-button start feature that allows you to start the engine without inserting the key into the ignition.
Locksmiths are able to provide car key replacement services, to replace lost or broken car keys. They can also program new keys, duplicate existing keys, and even extract broken keys from locks.
Transponders
A transponder key is an electronic car key that contains a small microchip called a transponder. The chip sends a unique signal to the car’s onboard computer, which allows the vehicle to start.
When you insert the key into the ignition and turn it, the car’s computer sends a signal to the transponder chip, which then sends a coded response back to the computer. If the code matches the one stored in the car’s computer, the engine will start. If the codes do not match, the engine will not start. This is an added security feature to prevent theft.
There are a couple of different types of transponder keys, including:
Fixed-code transponders: These keys have a fixed code that is programmed into the chip at the factory. This code cannot be changed and is unique to each car.
Crypto transponders:
These keys have a code that is generated by a mathematical algorithm.
The code changes each time the key is used, making it much more difficult for a thief to steal the car.
Transponder keys can be programmed or reprogrammed by Doctor Lock Brisbane we are Locksmiths, and have the necessary equipment to communicate with the vehicle’s onboard computer.
We can also repair or replace a damaged transponder key.
It’s important to note that Transponder keys are designed to work with specific makes and models of cars, so it is important to ensure that you are getting the right key for your vehicle.
