Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) have an electronic chip within their heads. When the key is inserted into an automobile equipped with transponder tech, the chip sends out an unintentional message to a receiver located near the ignition switch. This causes the engine to begin, when it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are designed to prevent car thieves This is the reason they are present in a majority of modern cars.

In World War II, coded messages were broadcast over radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, the majority of new cars are equipped with them, and they are also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to incorporate them.

If you own a car that has this type of security system, you should always keep an extra transponder card at hand, as it only works only if the chip has been scanned correctly. However, this isn't completely foolproof, and some people have discovered methods to fool the transponder system, including tutorials and kits that show how to bypass it with electrical relays and wiring.

Proximity Keys

Proximity Keys are one of the newest keyless entry innovations that are becoming popular across a variety of vehicles. The key fob is stored in a pocket or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob will then communicate with the car, removing the immobiliser and allowing for the engine to start.

There are a few drawbacks with proximity key systems though. If the key fob is damaged or lost it won't be able to start the car. It's costly to have a locksmith or dealership replace it. Batteries also power the fobs, which means they'll require replacing often.

Another drawback of proximity keys technology is that it breaks the cause-and-effect cycle that we're used to with physical keys. When you insert a traditional key and the lock opens, you are aware that you have the key. You'll need to be within a specific distance to activate the proximity-sensing key.

Despite these downsides, proximity keys are a great innovation for those who wish to keep themselves from locking out of their vehicles. In case of emergencies, always keep an emergency key with you if you own a proximity key. If you require a new key, you can contact your local Pop-Alock to inquire about the cost of replacements and to receive a price for services.
