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 theft rate of cars began to decline as car immobilisers became increasingly popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However the criminals are always on the lookout for ways to get around security systems. The early immobilisers could be avoided by scanning the chip's coding and then copying it onto the blank key. But technology has improved and thieves have to devise new tricks.

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

When the Thatcham approved system is activated, it will send a signal coded to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle that prevents the motor from starting without the proper key.

Transponders

A transponder is an instrument that sends back an identifying signal when it is questioned. It is used to identify the aircraft to air traffic control if it is in an active radar system. It also helps maintain separation between airplanes. The information that the transponder relays to air traffic control varies according to the kind of system.

Transponders are also used in satellites and space vehicles to connect with Earth-based systems, such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals at various frequencies, and then transmit the signals on a different spectrum similar to how repeaters in terrestrial cell phone networks operate.

Often, sophisticated passive transponders can be located on aircraft. They are used to monitor the status of the flight and provide information on navigation including the aircraft's position and speed, altitude, and the route. Transponders provide information that air traffic controllers can utilize to control flight paths, and also ensure security.

In addition to transponders for aircraft, a lot of personal keys contain a small transponder chip. The chips are passive and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to read the transponder signal when it is placed in the ignition lock.

The flight deck of the majority of airplanes contains a switch that pilots can turn their transponders off or off. They can also select an "ident" mode, which enables the transponder's unique squawk code and help it stand out on an air traffic control screens.
