Remote Fobs

A key fob is a small device that allows you unlock your car without the physical key. It can also be used as an additional remote for other devices, such as the garage door opener or the home security system. Key fobs work through radio frequencies. They are similar to transmitters of remote-control toys. When you hit the fob's button, it transmits a code to the receiver in your car or another device. The receiver interprets the code and signals what to do.

Modern car key fobs employ radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to communicate with the vehicle's onboard computer. The computer receives the signal from the key fob, and looks for an exact code that matches the preprogrammed code. If the code is found, the system will open the door or start the engine.

Other kinds of vehicles are also utilizing the technology, including trucks and tractors, planes as well as buses/coaches and tanks. Many car manufacturers have integrated the RFID system in their cars. This makes it simpler to start the engine or open the doors with just a push of a single button.

While the convenience of a car's key fob is appealing, it could be dangerous if you don't pay to your surroundings. For instance the owner of a CR auto editor once walked by her car parked Honda Accord and found all the windows were down. This is because the key fob had sent a signal to activate the automatic windows.

It is not enough to be watching your battery, but also ensure that the key fob is connected to the computer onboard of your car securely. A loose or disconnected key fob could send the wrong signal, which can lead to a malfunction such as an overheated engine or an uncontrolled window lowering.

It's also a good idea to replace the battery periodically to prevent it from losing its charge too fast. Generally, you can find the right battery for your key fob at a local hardware store or a big-box retailer. You can find the instructions for replacing the battery in the owner's manual, or on the site of the manufacturer.
