If you're a car enthusiast who appreciates the unique beauty of Lamborghini's, you might already be aware of the company's newest concept. The Asterion key, a key with NFT capabilities for cars, was delivered to space.

Our locksmiths are on call 24/7 whether it's raining or shining and on weekends, holidays or even on the weekend. They are equipped with key programmers and break-in and entry tools capable of duplicated keys for a Lamborghini keyfob or smart-key in a flash at an affordable cost.

Keyless Entry System

Smart keys are offered on most Lamborghini models. They can be used to open and lock the doors and start the car and disarm the immobilizer without the need for an ordinary metal key. Smart keys work by using an electronic transponder on the key's back. This communicates with the car's computer via a coded signal when the key is within five feet.

The keys have a built-in controller chip which generates a 40 bit code each time a button is pressed to transmit it and then transmits it to the receiver. This hopping/rolling code prevents the transmitter and receiver from detecting each other's signals which means that the keys can only be used on a specific Lamborghini at a given time.

To duplicate a key that has this kind of electronic system, you must have a special coding machine that can only be purchased through a licensed locksmith or Lamborghini dealer. This kind of equipment can cost a few grand which is the primary reason why a digital key is more costly than merely cutting a traditional metal bladed key.

Key Fob

The key fob is fitted with a small transmitter that communicates through Radio Frequency Identification technology (RFID). It makes use of radio frequencies to transmit the coded signal to an RFID chip inside the vehicle. The chip then sends that information back to the key fob. When the key fob is activated the car, it is able to recognize the information transmitted by the RFID chip and respond accordingly.

The fob could also have buttons that trigger other functions like locking doors, unlocking them, activating the power sunroof or folding the sidemirrors with power. It can also start the engine and flash a signal to inform you that it has done so.

You can easily replace the fobs at an auto dealership or a retailer who sells them. You can also refer to the owner's manual, which contains instructions on how to replace the battery yourself. It's usually a simple task that takes only a few moments.

If your keys don't work it is most likely with the ignition switch. This component is vulnerable to excessive wear and tear or damage that can cause it to break down. If the ignition switch malfunctions it will stop the car from starting, preventing you from driving it. This is a serious scenario, so it's vital to investigate the issue and fix it as soon as possible.

Remote Keyless System Receiver Module

The receiver is an RF unit which contains programming logic for RKE. It is located below the lower instrument panel of the passenger, close to the glovebox's opening. The RF receiver is the radio transmitter at 315 MHz and can decode and receive a data stream from the RKE key fob. The data stream is typically 64 to 128 bits long and is comprised of a preamble, command code, and rolling codes. The RF signal is modulated with the amplitude shift keying method to reduce battery consumption and increase the range of transmission.

When a user presses one of the buttons for functions on the RKE keyfob, it will activate the mechanical actuators on the keyfob to press the button on RF receiver. This triggers a signaling process to send a message back to the BCM to indicate that the pressed function switch was actuated.

The BCM sends a signal to the RKE transmitter, which then transmits an RF radio coded signal to the vehicle, in accordance with the code that is transmitted. The receiver is also able to store the transmitter's codes and allow up to four different remote keyless entries to be simultaneously. The RF receiver chime when it receives a command from a transmitter that is not compatible with the receiver.

Diagnostics of a fault

Fault diagnosis is the process used to determine the root of a flaw in the system by studying the behavior of its components. It is an essential part of the design process and could reduce development time due to the need for extensive testing. It allows for the quick detection of defects, and increases the security of systems. This is vital for high-speed systems, where failures can be expensive.

Lamborghini cars today are typically equipped with a push-to start ignition system which is also referred to as smart keys. This lets you start your car by pressing a button located on the dashboard rather than turning a traditional ignition button.
