Losing keys can be a major headache and cause stress. It's best to make a spare and keep it safe, depending on how often you misplace your keys. This way, if you lose your keys, they can be quickly and easily replaced. You can also contact the local police department to provide details of your keys and get them returned if they are found.

Many people assume that the only option for Fiat key replacement is to visit the dealership, but this is not the case in all cases.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are tiny circuits within your key that communicate with your car's immobilizer. When the key is turned into the ignition the chip sends an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If the ID code matches with that stored in the BCM memory the immobilizer is disabled and the engine will be able to start. If the ID code does not match, the security lamp will come on and your car won't be allowed to start.

Transponders aren't perfect however, since car thieves have developed over time to find ways of bypassing security systems to prevent theft. Having a spare key with a working transponder can help keep this from occurring.

Smart Keys Keys

Smart keys aren't only an excellent convenience. They also make it harder for car thieves take your car. Smart keys do not broadcast the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead they send different encrypted messages every when they open doors or remotely unlock the trunk. The computer in your car recognizes the changing frequencies, and will only let it start only when the correct key matches.

BMW smart keys, for example include a small LCD touchscreen that performs the same functions as a traditional key fob. This includes locking or unlocking and keyless entry. They also let you to store your own driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs, as well and instruct your car to park itself. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.

Smart keys aren't 100% secure. If someone near you detects the low-frequency transmissions between your smart key and your car while you are away, for instance at a restaurant or gas station, they could gain access to your car (or at the very least, attempt to).

The good news is that the majority of smart keys have batteries that can be activated when the main battery fails. Many smart key batteries can be easily replaced and do not require specialized tools.
