They can supply flip keys, remotes and even Fobs. They can also assist you to program any new keys.
Remotes
Most Seat drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement keys from a dealer is expensive and time consuming. This is because most dealers will programme the key using the car's computer which will need to be reset. However, many people buy second-hand keys off the internet that are not programmed to their car. This can be a much cheaper alternative to going to the dealer. But, these key will not start the car because they will not have a transponder chip inside them. You can see the chip (yellow) in this picture below, it is a Dual Inline Package or DIP 18 pin chip. There are also a diode, transistor and resonator, all these parts make up the key's circuit.
Immobilisers
Since car immobilisers became popular in the latter part of the nineties, car theft rates began to fall, but thieves are always searching for ways to bypass security systems. They were able to sneak around the earlier immobiliser systems using scanners to locate the code on the transponder chip, and then copying it to the blank key, however since then, technology has improved and they've had to develop new methods.
Fortunately, the majority immobilisers we offer and install are Thatcham Cat 2 certified. This means that they have been tested and approved by the Thatcham Research organisation. This not-for-profit organization is the grading system and approval system for the automotive aftermarket alarm and security devices, such as car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved system is activated, it will send a signal to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle that prevents the engine from starting if it does not have the correct key. This means that if a car has been "hot wired" after entry, the engine will cease to function within 30 seconds, rendering it impossible to start.
Like any computer, the immobiliser may develop problems. Sometimes the internal battery or key fob will require replacement. It is best to have an expert do the work and ensure that everything is properly installed and is working.
Transponders
A transponder is a device that transmits an identifying signal when it is interrogated. It identifies the aircraft to air traffic control if it is on a radar system. It also helps maintain separation between planes. The information that the transponder sends back varies according to the kind of system.
Transponders are also used in space vehicles and satellites to communicate with Earth-based systems such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals on a range of frequencies, and then transmit them on another frequency, similar to how repeaters work in land-based cell phone networks.
Often sophisticated passive transponders can be located on aircraft. They are utilized to monitor the status of the flight and provide navigation information including the aircraft's position speed, altitude, speed and route. Air traffic controllers use data from these transponders in order to manage flight paths and ensure safety.
In addition to aircraft transponders some personal keys come with a tiny transponder. These chips don't require batteries and are purely passive. This lets the ECU to read the signal from the transponder when it's put into the ignition lock.
The flight deck on most aircrafts is equipped with a switch pilots can press to turn their transponders off or off. They can also choose an "ident" mode that allows the transponder transmit its unique squawk codes. This helps it stand out the crowded air-traffic control screen.
