Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are tiny circuits embedded into your key and communicate with the immobilizer. When the key is switched on, the chip transmits an ID code to the Body Control Module (BCM) of the vehicle. If that ID code matches that in the BCM's memory, the immobilizer is deactivated and the engine is started. If the ID code does not match, the security light will light up and your car will not be able to start.

Instead, they send out different encrypted messages each time they open doors or remotely unlock the trunk. A computer inside your car then recognizes the changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the right key matches the latest signal.
