Transponder Chips

All modern Renault keys are equipped with transponder (also known as"chip-key") "chip-key"). This chip is a small electronic circuit that communicates with your car's ECU to open the doors and start the engine. When you insert your car keys into the ignition an antenna ring sends the radio frequency energy in a flash to the transponder. The chip transmits the signal, which contains the unique code. The ECU examines this code to determine if the key is legitimate to drive the vehicle. This will help reduce theft of cars, since the keys aren’t simply a flat metal key that can be easily copied. Instead, they come with an additional layer of security to prevent unauthorised access to your vehicle.

Older cars that did not have transponder chips were extremely easy to duplicate and therefore car thieves could easily steal vehicles. Since most cars made after 1995 are equipped with transponders, this kind of crime is less frequent. This is because the car's microchip is uniquely linked to a specific vehicle and is only activated if it is utilized with the correct key. If someone tries to start your car using a transponder key that hasn't been programmed with the car you own, the ECU won't recognize it and will not start.

Car immobilisers are a vital part of your vehicle security. They prevent your Renault from being started by the wrong key, thus safeguarding your vehicle from theft. Since 1998, immobilisers have been required for all new automobiles in the UK. However, many older cars have them. These devices can increase the security of your car and may even help reduce your insurance premiums.

The first automobile immobilisers were introduced in 1992, and most luxury automakers incorporated them into their vehicles soon after. They are designed to prevent the engine from running when the correct key isn't available 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 transmit a code to the ECU that needs to match with the code to allow the engine to start. If the codes do not match then the ECU disables several key vehicle components such as the starter motor as well as the fuel system.

If you have an older Renault key that doesn't have the security feature, you can buy an alternative key to get this additional layer of protection. But, it is essential to make sure that the key you purchase is approved by Thatcham and has been programmed to work with your specific vehicle.
