Electronic car keys are quite convenient in terms of managing and protecting the vehicle from intruders. For many brands of modern cars, it is allowed to program these control accessories and key fobs directly to the owners of the cars. At the same time, in order to program a car key, you will need to have working (already programmed) copies.Please note that you can order car key programming at the link https://csvehiclelocksmiths.co.uk/services/car-key-programming/
Generalized programming procedure directly in the vehicle
Theoretically, programming goes without problems, provided that all actions are accurately performed. As a last resort, there is always the option of contacting a professional service if programming the car key with your own hands cannot be done.The operation of such a protective system is implemented using a special device called an immobilizer. The fact is that the key of most modern cars has an individually encoded microcircuit, which, when the key is inserted into the ignition switch, sends a signal to an identically programmed standard immobilizer. The essence of the work is extremely simple: the code is correct — the car can be started and driven, the code is incorrect — the attacker is working, all the systems of the car are blocked, you can’t drive.
The combination of a programmed key and an immobilizer makes up a kind of anti-theft system, the operation of which must always be debugged and stable. To get a clearer idea of the essence of the operation of this node, let’s consider the general principles of its functioning:
- synchronization of the key and the immobilizer is a fully automated process, that is, the code is entered by itself and does not require the participation of the driver;
- this anti-theft system consists of: a signal receiver and transponder, which is built into the key itself, a special antenna, a signaling LED and an immobilizer itself;
- the system has an autonomous principle of operation, that is, even when the battery terminals are disconnected, it can protect your car from intruders for a long time.
The general concept of the system is functioning based on electromagnetic interactions. The failure of such devices, unfortunately, is not uncommon. Based on this, programming car ignition keys is a fairly common practice.
