We've all had that moment when we reach in the back seat to take off a child's car seat and fail. It's embarrassing, frustrating and isn't uncommon for everyone.

Keys

The loss of a car key is a frequent occurrence and can be a major trouble. However finding a new key from a dealer could be expensive. UK Auto Locksmiths can offer a much cheaper alternative, and they will have the most recent software and equipment to help you out. To permit them to complete the task, you will only need a VIN and proof of ownership. Another thing they'll need is the type of key you require. They can supply remotes, flip keys and even Fobs. They can also assist you to program new keys.

Remotes

Most seat ibiza key fob 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

When car immobilisers began to become more popular in the late nineties, car theft rates began to decrease, however, thieves are smart and constantly seeking ways to circumvent security systems. They could get through the early immobiliser systems using scanners to locate the transponder's code chip and then copying it to an unlocked key, but since then, technology has improved and they've had to develop new tricks.

Fortunately the majority of the immobilisers we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This not-for-profit organisation is the grading and approval system for aftermarket automotive alarms and security devices, such as 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 running until the correct key is available. This means that if a car has been "hot wired" after entry, the engine will shut down within 30 seconds, rendering it impossible to start.

As with any computer, the immobiliser may develop problems. Sometimes, the internal battery or key fob will need to be replaced. The best thing to do is always to hire a professional to carry out the work, as this will ensure that everything is installed correctly and that it works.

Transponders

Transponders transmit an identification signal to the receiver when it is questioned. This helps maintain separation between aircraft and also signals 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 according to the type of system.

Transponders are also found on spacecrafts and satellites, allowing them to communicate with Earth systems such as cell phone networks and other networks of communication. These devices receive incoming signals at a variety of frequencies, and then retransmit signals on a different frequency, similar to how repeaters function in land-based cellular phone networks.

Sophisticated passive transponders are often found on board aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide information about navigation such as the aircraft’s position along with speed and altitude. Air traffic controllers rely on the information from these transponders to control flight paths and ensure security.

In addition to transponders for aircraft, many personal keys now come with a tiny transponder. The chips are passive and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to read the transponder's signal whenever it is inserted into the ignition lock.

The flight deck of the majority of airplanes contains a switch that pilots can use to turn their transponders off or off. They can also select a "ident" mode that lets the transponder transmit its unique squawk codes. This makes it stand out the crowded air-traffic control screen.
