Keys

Keys to your car are lost. It's a common occurrence and can be a real troublesome issue to solve, but getting an replacement key from the dealer is expensive. UK Auto Locksmiths will offer you a cheaper alternative and have the latest equipment and software that can help. All you require is an VIN number and evidence of ownership to enable them to do the job. The other information they will need is the type of key you need. They can provide remotes, flip keys and even Fobs. They will also be in a position to assist you with the programming of any new keys.

Remotes

Most seat key Transponder programming 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.

Immobilisers

The number of car thefts began to decline since car immobilisers became more popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However the criminals are always looking for ways to get around security systems. They could get around the earlier immobiliser systems using a scanner tool to find the transponder's code chip and then copying it to the blank key, however since then, technology has evolved and they've been forced to devise new tricks.

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

If the Thatcham approved immobiliser system is activated, it will send a coded message to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which blocks the engine from starting until the correct key is available. This means that if a car has been "hot wired" following entry the engine will be shut down within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.

As with any computer, the immobiliser may develop problems. Sometimes the internal battery or key fob may require replacement. It is recommended to hire an expert do the work to make sure everything is installed correctly and works.

Transponders

Transponders are devices which transmits an identifying signal when it is questioned. This signals the aircraft's location to air traffic control if it is on an active radar system, and helps maintain the separation between aircrafts. The information sent back by the transponder differs based on the type of system being used.

Transponders are also employed in satellites and space vehicles to communicate with Earth-based systems, such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals at a range frequencies and then retransmit those signals in a different frequency like repeaters on land-based cell phone networks operate.

Transponders with sophisticated technology are commonly used on aircrafts. They monitor the status of flight and provide information about navigation such as the aircraft’s position, speed and altitude. Transponders transmit information that air traffic controllers make use of to manage flight routes and ensure safety.

In addition to transponders for aircraft some personal keys include a transponder chip. These chips don't require batteries and are passive. This allows the ECU to read the transponder signal when it is put into the ignition lock.

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