Key services

Since 1995, almost all new vehicles sold in the UK, had to have some form of immobiliser installed in order to reduce the number of vehicles being stolen. Most immobiliser installed were a transponder-based system, this type of immobiliser system did not involve the person with the key to do anything to either arm or disarm the immobiliser.

The transponder was hidden into the head of the key and was energised by an Ariel mounted around the ignition barrel, which also read the transponder and checked with the car immobiliser system that the transponder was a valid one. If the transponder was recognised by the car the then the immobiliser system was disarmed and allowed the engine to start. Since 1995 the types of immobiliser systems have become more complex and the keys now in come in different forms, but nearly all keys still use a form of transponder.

Transponder key replacement

A lot of car keys today come with a transponder, which uses a microchip embedded within the head of the key, programmed to your vehicle by the manufacturer. The receiver has to detect the correct serial number in order to unlock or start the engine when the driver turns the key. A transponder key is a more cost-efficient alternative to the more expensive remote key. If you would like us to check if you can have a standard transponder key for your vehicle, please do not hesitate to contact us.
