Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are tiny circuits integrated into your key to communicate with the 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 stored in the BCM's memory then the immobilizer is disabled and the engine starts. If the ID code does not match the security light won't be on and the vehicle will not start.

Smart Keys

Smart keys aren't just a cool convenience, they also make it hard for car thieves to steal your car. Smart keys don't broadcast the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead, they send out different encrypted messages every when they open doors or remotely unlock the trunk. A computer inside your car then recognizes the frequency shifts and only allows it to begin if the correct key is in line with the new signal.

A BMW smart key, for instance it has a tiny LCD color touchscreen on it that performs the standard functions of a standard key fob (locking and unlocking, as well as 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 from the key for fiat 500. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.

Smart keys are not completely secure. If someone close to you detects the low-frequency transmissions between your smart key and your vehicle, even when you are away, like at a gas or restaurant station, they can gain access to your car (or at least attempt to).

The good news is that the majority of smart keys have battery backups that will be activated when the main battery is dead. Additionally, many smart keys' batteries are easy to replace and typically do not require any special tools.
