Transponder keys work using a microchip embedded in the key. This microchip emits a signal to the car’s immobiliser system, allowing the engine to start only when it receives the correct code from the key. Based on radio frequency identification (RFID), this technology ensures that only authorised keys can activate the ignition. Unauthorised keys or attempts to bypass the ignition system will be rendered ineffective. This not only enhances the overall security of the vehicle but also provides peace of mind to the car owner.
The cost of replacing car keys varies based on your vehicle’s make, model, and year, as well as the type of key, whether it’s a transponder, chip key, or proximity card. Just provide these details on our website, and you’ll receive a complimentary, competitively-priced quote outlining the replacement costs for your type of key.
