Remotes

Most seat ibiza key 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 number of car thefts started to decrease since car immobilisers became more popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However the criminals are always looking for ways to bypass security systems. They could get around early immobiliser systems by employing a scanner to find the transponder's code chip, and then copying it onto a blank key, but since then, technology has improved and they've been forced to devise new tricks.

Fortunately, the majority of immobilisers we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means that they have been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organization is responsible for the grading system and approval of aftermarket security devices for automobiles and alarm systems, which includes car immobilisers.

If the Thatcham approved immobiliser system is activated, it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which prevents the engine from starting until the correct key is available. If the car is "hot-wired" upon entry this will stop the engine within 30 seconds and make it impossible to start.

Like all computers it is possible that the immobiliser will be prone to problems. Sometimes, the battery or key fob might need to be replaced. The best option is to always hire a professional to carry out the task, since this will ensure that everything is installed correctly and that it works.

Transponders

A transponder is a piece of equipment which transmits an identifying signal when it is questioned. It identifies the aircraft to air traffic control when it is in an active radar system. It also helps maintain separation between airplanes. The identifying information sent back by the transponder is different based on the type of system used.

Transponders are also present in satellites and spacecraft to connect with Earth systems, such as cell phone networks or other networks for communication. They receive signals at a variety of frequencies, and then transmit them at a different frequency, just like repeaters operate in terrestrial cell phone networks.

Often sophisticated transponders with sophisticated technology can be located on aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide navigational information like the aircraft's position along with speed and altitude. Air traffic controllers rely on the information from these transponders control flight paths and ensure safety.

Many keys for personal use have transponder chips, in addition to aircraft transponders. These chips don't require batteries and are passive. This lets the ECU to read the signal from the transponder whenever it is inserted in the ignition lock.

The flight deck of most aircrafts is equipped with a switch pilots can activate to switch their transponders either on or off. They can also choose an "ident" mode, which enables the transponder's unique squawk code and help it stand out on a busy air traffic control screen.
