Remotes

Most seat alhambra key 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 amount of thefts from cars began to decline since car immobilisers became more popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However, thieves are always on the lookout for ways to bypass security systems. The early immobilisers could be bypassed by using a scanner to find the chip's code and copying it onto a blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves have had to come up new ways to get around security systems.

Luckily, the majority of immobilisers that we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This non-profit organization is the grading and approval system for automotive aftermarket alarm and security devices, such as car immobilisers.

When the Thatcham approved immobiliser system is activated, it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which blocks the engine from starting unless the key that is required is present. This means that if the vehicle is "hot wired" after entry the engine will be stop working within 30 seconds, rendering it impossible to start.

Like any computer, the immobiliser may be prone to problems. Sometimes, the internal battery or key fob may need to be replaced. It is best to hire an expert do the work, as they will make sure that everything is installed correctly and operates.

Transponders

A transponder is an instrument which transmits an identifying signal when it is questioned. This helps keep a distinct line between aircraft and identifies an aircraft to air traffic controllers if it is using an active radar system. The information that the transponder transmits to the air traffic control system varies depending on the kind of system.

Transponders are also found on spacecrafts and satellites, allowing them to connect with Earth systems such as cell phone networks, or other communication networks. These devices receive signals at a range frequency and then retransmit signals on a different spectrum, similar to how repeaters in terrestrial cell phone networks function.

Often, sophisticated passive transponders can be found on aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide navigational information such as the aircraft's location along with speed and altitude. Air traffic controllers utilize the data from these transponders to manage the flight path and ensure security.

In addition to aircraft transponders Many personal keys have a small transponder. The chips are passive and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to read the transponder's signal when it is placed in the ignition lock.

A majority of aircrafts have a button on the flight deck that allows pilots to turn on or off their transponders. 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 screen.
