The chip is encrypted and contains a code that is inaccessible to copy. Every time you insert your keys into the ignition barrel it checks for the code and transmits it electronically to the immobiliser system in the car. If the chip is not present the car's fuel supply is shut off and the engine won't begin. Professional Peugeot locksmiths will be able to make new keys for your vehicle in a matter of minutes – and at a fraction the cost of dealerships. They can even visit you so that you do not have to worry about having your car towed back to the dealership. These types of situations are often covered by car insurance companies, so you can get an alternative key for your Peugeot car faster than you think. Transponder Chips The majority of Peugeot cars made since 1995 contain a transponder chip inside the car keys. It's a tiny electronic chip that has non-volatile memories, a type of memory that does not require constant energy to store. Additionally, there's a set of windings (very fine wires that are wrapped around a tube) similar to the ones you'd see in an electric motor. When the key is in the ignition barrel and the Peugeot immobiliser system will receive the information and, if correct the engine will be started. This makes the Peugeot more difficult to be stolen from a novice car burglar who may attempt to wire it. It's not foolproof, and even this kind of security device is easily bypassed by a person with the right expertise. A professional locksmith is able to create a spare Peugeot with a transponder. They will simply need to take off the plastic cover from the key fob (which can be done using the use of pliers or a screwdriver). Once this is removed, the locksmith can take out the transponder chip, and then place it on a piece of tape before attaching it to the ignition lock. The locksmith can then try to start the car with this disassembled keys. If it does not work the chip can be moved and tested again. Immobilisers The majority of modern cars have immobilisers built-in to them and prevent the vehicle from starting unless it is powered by an authorised key or key fob. When activated the immobilisers transmit a unique code to the car's ECU. If smart key doesn't match the one that is stored in the vehicle, the ECU will not let the engine begin and stop the fuel pump or starter motor. These systems are effective in preventing car theft however, they must be updated periodically to ensure that thieves cannot get around them. For instance researchers have claimed to be able to hack into some security systems and had an auto started in less than 30 minutes. Insurance approved immobilisers are required to be able to stop the ignition as well as the fuel system and the starter motor. These security systems are class 1 and most secure without alarm system. Thankfully, these keys can be changed or reset with the assistance of an experienced auto locksmith who has access to dealer-standard equipment. This means that they can visit you at home or work and be able to cut, program and hand over new Peugeot keys weeks before a dealership is able to do so – and for just a fraction of the cost. Remote Locking Fobs Most new Peugeot cars have key fobs that can unlock the doors and start the engine at just a touch. This is convenient, however there are some dangers that come with this technology. Some thieves have discovered ways to interfere with the signal between the fob and the vehicle and gain access to the vehicle. To stop this most of the newer fobs come with security features such as pseudo-random code generation to stop the same unlocking code from being sent repeatedly. Modern fobs can perform much more than just unlock the car. By pressing a button, they can also lower the windows, and even park the car. This feature is especially beneficial if you're in a tight parking spot with another driver. Certain key fobs come with a panic button that could be useful in the event of an emergency. Some experts recommend keeping your car key fob close to your bed to activate the panic button in the event that you hear unusual noises in the night. If your key fob is lost or damaged, you may need to have it reprogrammed. This can be done at a dealership, however it's generally cheaper to have an automotive locksmith handle it. We can get your key fob operational and looking like new in no-time.
