Keys
The loss of a car's key is an issue that is common and can be a big trouble. However the process of getting a new one from a dealer can be expensive.

Remotes
Most seat ibiza replacement key fob drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting seat replacement key 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
As car immobilisers became more popular in the latter part of the nineties, car theft figures began to drop, but thieves are always looking for ways around security systems. They could get around early immobiliser systems by using a scanning tool to locate the transponder's code chip and then copying it onto the blank key, but since then, technology has improved and they've been forced to develop new tricks.
Fortunately the majority of the immobilisers we offer and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This non-profit organization is responsible for the grading system, as well as the approval of aftermarket security devices for automobiles and alarm devices, including car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved system is activated, it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle. This will stop the motor from running without the correct key. This means that if the vehicle is ”hot wired” after entry and the engine is cease to function within 30 seconds, rendering it impossible to start.
As with any computer, the immobiliser may be prone to problems. Sometimes the internal battery or seat replacement key fob might need to be replaced. It is best to have an expert do the work to make sure everything is installed correctly and is working.
Transponders
A transponder is a piece of equipment that sends back an identification signal when it is interrogated. This identifies the aircraft to air traffic control if it is operating on a radar system. It also helps maintain the separation between aircrafts. The information used to identify the aircraft transmitted by the transponder is different based on the type of system that is used.
Transponders are also found in spacecraft and satellites to communicate with Earth systems such as cell phone networks and other networks of communication. These devices receive signals on a variety of frequencies, and then transmit the signals using a different spectrum, similar to how repeaters in land-based cell phone networks function.
Transponders with sophisticated technology are commonly found on board aircraft. They monitor the status of flight and provide information about navigation including the aircraft's position speed, altitude, and speed. These transponders provide data that air traffic controllers can utilize to control flight paths and ensure security.
Many personal keys contain a transponder chip in addition to transponders for aircraft. These chips are inactive and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU read the signal from the transponder once it is inserted in the ignition lock.
The flight deck of most aircrafts includes a switch pilots can activate to switch their transponders on or off. They can also select a ”ident” mode that lets the transponder to transmit its unique squawk codes, which helps it stand out a busy air-traffic control screen.
