Transponder Chips Transponder chips are miniature circuits inside your key that communicate with the car's immobilizer. When the key is turned on, the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If that ID code matches the one in the BCM's memory, then the immobilizer is turned off and your engine starts. If the ID code does not match, the security light will be lit and your vehicle won't be able to start. Transponders aren't completely invincible however, since car thieves have developed over time to find ways of bypassing security systems to prevent theft. Having a spare key with a functioning transponder could help to stop this from happening.

Smart Keys Smart keys aren't only a convenient convenience. They also make it more difficult for thieves to steal your vehicle. Smart keys do not broadcast the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead they transmit different encrypted messages every time they open a door or remotely unlock the trunk. The computer in your car recognizes the different frequencies, and will only allow it to begin when the correct key is found. A BMW smart key, for instance it has a tiny LCD touchscreen in color which performs the typical functions of a normal key fob (locking, unlocking and keyless start) It also gives you the ability to save individual driver settings, turn off sunroofs and windows, as well as command your car to auto park by using the key. Smart keys are distinguished by these features. Smart keys aren't entirely secure. If someone close to you receives low-frequency signals between your smart key, and your car while you are away, such as in a restaurant or a gas station, they can gain access to your car (or at the very least, attempt to). The good news is that the majority of smart keys have a backup battery that is activated if the main battery goes out. Many smart key batteries can be easily replaced and don't require specialized tools.
