Lost or Stolen Keys

The loss of keys can be a big hassle and stressor. Depending on how often you lose your keys, it may be beneficial to have a spare key made and keep it somewhere safe. If you lose your keys then they can be easily and quickly replaced.

They can also provide a cheaper solution. These locksmiths will use information like your VIN number and the unique codes on the key fob to make an entirely new key for you.

It is important to know the information you'll need to provide to locksmiths if you require to replace a Fiat vehicle key. They will request the year and model of your fiat keys. They will also ask if you need remote keys or a standard key. In the majority of cases, you can ask a locksmith over the phone what type of Fiat key is required.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are miniature circuits inside your key that communicate with the car's immobilizer. When the key is turned into the ignition the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If the ID code matches with that stored in the BCM memory the immobilizer will be turned off and the engine will start. If the ID code doesn't match the security light will appear and the car will not start.

A transponder isn't invincible however, since car thieves have developed over time to discover ways to evade security systems to prevent theft. A spare key that has an active transponder will aid in preventing this.

We'll need the year your Fiat was manufactured along with the model's name. Don't hesitate to ask any questions you have! Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will be glad to assist you.

Smart Keys Keys

Smart keys aren't only a convenient convenience. They also make it harder for car thieves take your car. Instead of broadcasting the same frequency signal like traditional key fobs, smart keys broadcast different encrypted signals every when they unlock a door or remotely open the trunk. A computer in your car then recognizes these different frequencies and allows it to start if the appropriate key matches the latest signal.

A BMW smart key, for example, has a small LCD touchscreen which performs the typical functions of a standard key fob (locking in, unlocking and keyless start), but also gives the option to store individual driver settings, switch off sunroofs and windows, and also command your car to auto park by using the key. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.

Smart keys aren't entirely secure. If someone in your vicinity is able to hear the low frequency transmissions sent between your smart key and your car it could allow access to your vehicle (or at least try to) by picking up on the signals even if you're not from your vehicle like at an eatery or gas station.

The good news is that a majority of smart keys have battery backups that will start when the main battery fails. Many smart key batteries can be easily replaced and don't usually require special tools.
