In general car keys are divided to three main groups: Regular keys (metal keys), Transponder keys (computer chipped keys) and High security keys:
Transponder Keys- Also called Computer Chipped Keys. Many of today’s vehicles are equipped with transponder system technology which is based on radio signals. Basically it means that there is a small microchip underneath the plastic head cover of the key. that microchip needs to be programmed to the car’s computer in order for it to recognize the chip’s serial number. After one time programming, that specific key will turn off the engine immobilizers and start the vehicle. The process is not complicated and may be very quick but it requires a professional with the right equipment in order to prevent damage to the the car’s computer. Our technicians are fully trained and equipped to deal with all types of chipped keys.
High Security Keys- For some higher end vehicles it takes more advanced equipment in order to cut and program new keys. Usually dealerships will charge great amount of money for that and in addition you need to tow the car to the dealer.
