Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are miniature circuits inside your key that communicate with the car's immobilizer. When you turn the key into the ignition, the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If the ID code is identical to that stored in the BCM memory, the immobilizer will be disabled and the engine will be able to start. If the ID code doesn't match, the security lamp will light up and your car won't be able to start.

Transponders aren't invincible. Car thieves have come up with methods to evade anti-theft systems over time. Having a spare key with functioning transponders can help keep this from happening.

Smart Keys Keys

Smart keys aren't just a practical convenience. They also make it difficult for car thieves take your car. Instead of broadcasting the same frequency signal as traditional key fobs, smart keys transmit various encrypted signals each when they unlock doors remotely or open the trunk. A computer inside your car is able to detect these different frequencies and allows it to start if the right key matches the new signal.

A BMW smart key, for instance, has a small LCD touchscreen in color that performs the standard functions of a standard key fob (locking or unlocking and keyless start) However, it also offers you the ability to store personal driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs, and even command your car to auto park inside the key. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.

Despite this added layer of security, there are still ways that smart keys could be compromised. If someone near you is able to hear the low frequency transmissions sent between your smart device and your car it could allow access to your vehicle (or at the very least, attempt to) by detecting these signals when you're away from your vehicle for example, at restaurants or at a gas station.

The good news is that the majority of smart keys come with batteries that can begin to function when the main battery is dead. Many smart key batteries can be easily replaced and don't require special tools.
