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
As car immobilisers became more popular in the late nineties, car theft figures began to drop, however thieves are smart and always searching for ways to bypass security systems. The first immobilisers could be defeated by using a scanner to find the chip's coding and then copying it onto a blank key. However, technology has evolved and thieves are forced to think of new methods to get around security systems.
Fortunately, the majority immobilisers we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. The Thatcham Research organisation has tested and certified them. This non-profit organisation is responsible for the grading system and the approval of aftermarket security devices for automobiles and alarm devices, such as car immobilisers.
If the Thatcham approved immobiliser system is activated, it will transmit a coded signal to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, preventing the engine from starting unless the key that is required is present. If the vehicle is "hot-wired" after entering it will stop the engine within 30 seconds and make it impossible to start.
Like seat leon car key replacement is possible that the immobiliser will be prone to problems. Sometimes, the battery or key fob will need to be replaced. It is best to hire professionals handle the task, as they will make sure everything is installed correctly and operates.
Transponders
A transponder sends an identification signal back when it is questioned. It is used to identify the aircraft to air traffic control when it is on an active radar system and helps maintain the separation between aircrafts. The information that is transmitted by the transponder is different based on the type of system that is used.
Transponders are also present in spacecraft and satellites to communicate with Earth systems, such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. These devices receive signals at different frequencies and then retransmit the signals on a different spectrum like repeaters in terrestrial cell phone networks function.
Often sophisticated passive transponders can be located on aircraft. They are used to monitor the status of flight and provide navigational information like the aircraft's position speed, altitude, speed and route. Transponders transmit information that air traffic controllers can utilize to control flight paths and ensure safety.
Many personal keys contain a transponder chip in addition to transponders for aircraft. These chips are non-active and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to read the transponder's signal when it is installed into the ignition lock.
The flight deck of the majority of airplanes contains a switch that pilots can use to turn their transponders on or off. They can also select an "ident" mode, which enables the transponder to transmit its unique squawk coding and help it stand out on a busy air traffic control screens.
