Many modern cars have key fobs that allow you to remotely open and lock the car doors, as well as start the engine. However, like any other technology, they can malfunction from time to time. Fortunately, most problems that occur with key fobs do not seem difficult or complex and are usually easily fixed. One of the best ways to stop problems from catching you unaware is to always have an extra key.

Transponder Chip Keys

If you have a car that was manufactured in the last two decades or so, the odds are it needs the use of a transponder chip to start. This technology is designed to stop car theft using an electronic signal that only the car's computer onboard can discern. The key has an identical microchip to those used in military aircraft. The chip communicates with the computer system onboard through an antenna that is a ringed cylinder.

The key's wiring is copper connected to the microchip. It's this wire that transmits a signal to the onboard computer of the car when you turn it in the ignition. The computer responds by allowing the engine to begin. If the code is valid, it remains on and the car will not shut itself off or lock itself.

Some Mazda keys require programming (transponder keys and remote/fob keys). These keys can only be programmed by an auto dealer or automotive technician. Other keys aren't required to be programmed. Other keys do not require any kind of code.

Keys with Keyless Entry System
