Keyless Entry

Your Lexus key fob contains hardware that connects to the sensors in your vehicle. This lets you lock and unlock your doors, open the trunk, and turn on the ignition with a push button.

Immobilizer System

When you put your key in the ignition, it transmits an ID code to a receiver inside the car. If the ID code matches one in its memory, then the car's computers allow the engine start. If the ID code does not match, an immobilizer is activated, which stops the car from getting started.

This technology works even if your keys get stolen, but it's not foolproof. It is possible to "hack" or alter an anti-theft radiowave system. The thief could employ an aerial antenna to detect the signal and then spoof it to tell the vehicle that the key is in.
