Transponder Chips

Modern Renault keys come with a transponder chip (sometimes called a "chip key") included. This chip is a micro-circuit which communicates with the ECU of your car to unlock doors and to start the motor. When your car key is placed in the ignition the antenna ring that is on the ignition sends out an explosion of radio frequency energy, which is received by the transponder chip. The chip sends out a signal containing a unique code. The code is then read by the ECU to determine whether the key is valid and should be allowed to operate the vehicle. This could help reduce the risk of theft from cars, since keys aren't simply a flat metal key which is easily copied. Instead, they come with an additional layer of security that prevents unauthorised access to your vehicle.

Older cars that did not have transponder chips were very simple to duplicate and car thieves could easily rob vehicles. But since most cars made after 1995 have a transponder system installed, this type of crime has become much less common. This is due to the fact that the microchip of the car is connected to a specific car and can only be activated when used with the correct key.

Immobilisers

Immobilisers for your car are an important part of security for your vehicle. They safeguard your Renault against theft by stopping it from being opened with the wrong key. Immobilisers have been required on all new vehicles in the UK since 1998, however many older vehicles also have them fitted. These devices can help you increase the security of your vehicle and even lower your insurance rates.

The first automotive immobilisers appeared in 1992, and soon after most automobile manufacturers began to install them. They are designed to prevent the engine from starting when the correct key isn't in place or the transponder chip on the fob isn't recognised by the electronic controller unit (ECU).

When you connect your smart keys to your vehicle, they send an electronic code to the ECU that must match with the code in order for the engine to begin. If the codes don't match the ECU disables several important vehicle components such as the starter motor as well as the fuel system.

These methods involve devices that can duplicate the pin code by your key and broadcast it to the ECU to fool it into believing that your key is there. This is known as relay theft and is a frequent concern for people who have modern-day keyless entry and start-up vehicles.
