Transponder Chips

All modern Renault keys have a transponder chip (sometimes called a "chip key") embedded in them. This chip is a small electronic micro-circuit that communicates with the car's ECU to unlock the doors and begin the engine. When your car key is put into the ignition the antenna ring that is on the ignition sends an explosion of radio frequency energy that reaches the transponder chip. The chip emits an electronic signal that contains an unique code. The ECU examines this code to determine if the key is legitimate to drive the vehicle. This reduces the risk of car theft as the keys aren't just a simple flat metal key which can be copied easily, but rather have an additional layer of security to prevent unauthorised access to the vehicle.

Older cars without transponder chips were extremely easy to duplicate and therefore car thieves could easily rob vehicles. But since most cars made after 1995 have a transponder technology installed, this type of crime has become much less frequent. This is due to the fact that the car's microchip is uniquely connected to a specific car and can only be activated when used with the correct key. If someone tries starting your car using a transponder which hasn't been programmed specifically for your car, the ECU will not recognize it and will not start.

These devices can help increase the security of your car and can even reduce your insurance rates.

The first car immobilisers came out in 1992, shortly after most luxury automakers began installing them. They are designed to prevent the engine from running if the correct key is not present or if the transponder chip on the fob is not recognized by the electronic control unit (ECU).

When you connect the smart key to your vehicle, it will send a code to your ECU. The code must be identical to the code required for the engine to turn on. If the codes don't match then the ECU disables a number of key vehicle components such as the starter motor and the fuel system.

If you have an older Renault key that does not have the security feature, you can purchase a replacement to benefit from this additional layer of protection. However, it is important to ensure that the key you buy is Thatcham-approved and is programmed to be compatible with your specific vehicle.

A number of tech-savvy thieves have developed ways to bypass factory-fitted immobilisers. These methods involve devices that copy the pin code from your key, and then broadcast it to the ECU to trick it into believing that your key is in the vehicle.
