Remotes

Modern Saab vehicles do not use keys made of metal to lock their cars. Instead, they employ an immobilizer system based upon the recognition of a particular chip that is embedded in each key. This is why a particular kind of key is required to unlock the car, and then insert it into the ignition. This is one of the main reasons for a wise Saab owner to always have a spare key in the car.

The traditional metal keys can be easily copied but the problem is that the electronic part of a key-fob has to be connected to a specific vehicle in order for it to work. This matching takes place in the computer modules of the car, which are called CIM (Column Integration Modul) or TWICE.

Transponders

A transponder is an electronic chip inside a key fob that sends out a unique coded signal. It's part of the immobilizer system that stops thieves from using stolen keys to start your car. The transponder signals are received by a detector near the ignition, which interprets the serial number from the transmission. If the serial number matches, the car will start. The majority of cars built in the past two decades use transponder keys.

They are also used on aircrafts. ATC uses them to identify friendly aircraft by using an encoded signal called IFF (Identification friend or foe). Certain aircrafts are equipped with mode C or mode S transponders that transmit the identifying codes and altitude information to ATC. They also provide collision avoidance systems.

The metal parts on a standard Saab Key are simple to duplicate. However the microchip that communicates with an immobilizer could be difficult to copy. If you have one of these, it's vital to protect it.

Every Saab owner must have two keys working. If you lose only one, it will cost you an enormous amount to replace it. You will need to buy a computer module that is specifically designed for this or a spare key and program the car to convince it that you're not attempting to steal it.

Immobilizers

Immobilizers provide an additional layer of protection against hotwiring. They're designed to prevent the engine from running unless they have the transponder on the proper key fob. Most cars with immobilizers also display a warning icon in the instrument cluster to signal that the key isn't inside. If you lose your key fob, you'll need to go to an authorized dealer to get it removed and then get the replacement Saab 9-3 key.

These systems rely on encryption of data between the transponder system and the vehicle. However, recent studies have discovered that these encryption sequences are too easy for computers to hack. Therefore, they are able to be bypassed by hackers who are able to detect the messages that travel back and forth on the CAN bus.

These systems are more sophisticated than conventional immobilizers that use one fixed code. The newer models feature an option of changing or rolling codes to ensure they are secure. The issue with these is that hackers are still able to find ways to crack the code, and then use a key to start your car. To fix this issue the DST80 has an extended code that makes it more difficult to determine. Researchers also managed to break it. It's essential to keep your keyfob in your pocket even when you're not using it.
