Keys lost or stolen

Losing your keys is an immense hassle and can cause stress. Depending on the frequency you lose your keys, it could be beneficial to have a spare key made and store it somewhere safe. In this way, if you do lose your keys, they can be replaced quickly and easily. You can also contact the local police department to describe your keys and request that they be returned if found.

If you're in need of an Fiat car key replacement, it is essential to know the type of information you'll need to provide the locksmith. The first thing that they'll likely want is the year and name of your Fiat model. They will also ask if you need the remote key or an ordinary key. In most instances, you can ask a locksmith over the phone which Fiat key is required.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are tiny circuits within your key that communicate with your car's immobilizer. When you turn the key in the ignition, the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If the ID code matches that in the BCM's memory, then the immobilizer is disabled and the engine starts. If the ID code isn't compatible the security light won't come on and the car will not start.

Transponders can be hacked. Car thieves have devised ways to bypass anti-theft systems over time. A spare key that has an active transponder will aid in stopping this.

Smart Keys Keys

Smart keys aren't just a convenient convenience. They also make it harder for thieves to steal your vehicle. Smart keys do not broadcast the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead, they send out different encrypted messages each time they open a door or remotely unlock the trunk. A computer in your vehicle then detects the changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the right key matches the latest signal.

A BMW smart key, for example is equipped with a tiny LCD color touchscreen on it that performs the usual functions of a regular key fob (locking, unlocking and keyless start) It also gives you the ability to store personal driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs and even command your car to self-park inside the key. These kinds of features make smart keys stand apart from conventional keys.

Despite this added layer of security, there are ways for smart keys to be hacked. If someone else receives low-frequency signals between your smart key, and your car, while you are away, like at a gas or restaurant station, they could gain access to your car (or at the very least, attempt to).

The good news is that a majority of smart keys come with battery backups that will begin to function when the main battery fails. Many smart keys' batteries can be easily replaced and don't require special tools.
