Some criminals are able to attack the car's security system and steal the device using a cheap piece of hardware. Fobs are equipped with a variety of security features built-in to guard against these attacks. They transmit passcodes which change every time the fob activates and automatically shut off after a certain period.

Fobs are also designed to be safe from wireless hacking. Modern key fobs come with advanced encryption protocols that block hackers from intercepting codes.

The chip transmits an identification code to the car's engine immobilizer and informs it that it is a valid key and not a potentially stolen one. The chip sends this ID code via radio to the car's computer. If the ID code matches in the vehicle's memories the security system will shut off immobilizers and allow the engine to start when the ID code is found to match. The security light on the dashboard will go out after this has occurred.

If your car is equipped with a transponder, but it does not seem to to recognize the new keys that you have, you may request a locksmith to cut and program a new one.
