Transponder keys For All Car Makes & Models
Auto Locksmiths Perth can program transponder keys for many different makes and models of vehicles. Many people ask us what a transponder key is, as most customers don’t know that their car key most likely has one built into the head of the key. A transponder is a microchip that disarms a vehicles immobilizer when the car key is inserted into the ignition. When the car’s key is inserted into the ignition the car’s engine control unit sends a message or equation to be solved by the transponder in the key.

FAQs
1. Can you make a duplicate transponder key?
Yes, locksmiths with the right equipment and expertise can create a duplicate transponder key. However, it’s important to note that programming the key tailored to your specific car requires specialized knowledge and equipment.
2. What should I do if my transponder key stops working?
If your transponder key stops working, you should try replacing the key fob’s battery. And if that doesn’t work, you may need to contact a professional locksmith to get the key reprogrammed or replaced.

Our locksmith, with experience in transponder key systems, can suggest the next steps for your particular situation.

In everyday life, transponders are used for many different purposes.
They are used in aircraft to emit signals in response from signals from the ground. On a highway, a transponder is used on toll roads to collect data from the passing cars. The difference between the one found in your car is that the one in your car key is referred to as a “passive transponder” meaning it doesn’t require a power supply to run. Because of this, they only emit a signal to a very small area usually 1cm to 10cm
Transponders have been mandatory in Australia since 2001, and immobilizers have been required by law since 1996. Reports have shown that these devices have led to up to a 40% drop in car thefts.
