Transponder Chip A transponder chip is an electronic circuit that is embedded in your car key. It is programmed with an unique code that matches the immobiliser system in your car. This ensures that only the correct key is used to start your vehicle. Without the chip and the chip is not present, your car will not start.

A key fob is a small device that contains a computer chip, a battery and a metal key shell. When it comes close to a fob reader, the copper coils on both sides of the fob energize and transform the radio frequency signal into electricity. This power is then sent to the microcomputer inside the fob, which then transmits a unique number that acts as your identification credential. The key fob will then be presented to the reader so that the information stored in the memory can be compared. This process is referred to as “key matching” and is used by the security system in the vehicle to verify that you're the legitimate owner of the car. After being matched, the reader can then start the engine, and then open the doors.
