What Are Transponder Keys?
How Transponder Keys Work
Transponder keys contain a small microchip embedded in the plastic head of the key. When inserted into the ignition, the key transmits a unique signal to a receiver in the vehicle's ignition system. If the signal matches the code programmed into the vehicle's computer, the engine will start. This technology has significantly reduced vehicle theft compared to traditional metal keys.
Types of Transponder Keys
There are several generations and types of transponder keys, from basic transponder chips to advanced smart keys:
- Basic transponder keys - Simple chip-in-key systems used in many vehicles since the 1990s
- Rolling code transponders - Advanced systems that change codes with each use for enhanced security
- Remote head keys - Combine transponder technology with remote buttons for locking/unlocking
- Flip keys - Transponder keys with a blade that folds into the key housing
- Smart keys/proximity keys - Advanced keyless systems that allow push-button starting when the key is nearby
