Transponder Chips Renault has a couple of different systems when it comes to their immobilisers and key locks, the newer ones starting from 2000 include transponder chips. These are tiny circuits that are embedded in the key. They send signals to the computer system in the vehicle. If the signal is not received, the engine won't be able to start. This is a fantastic security measure to ensure that your car isn't stolen, and only you are capable of starting it. A replacement key that has a transponder chip is a bit more expensive than an ordinary non-transponder key this is because of the additional manufacturing costs of having a micro-circuit in the key, however this doesn't mean you will have to pay money. Locksmiths can produce a key with a Transponder Chip for a lower price than what you would pay at an auction. Many Renault owners who have lost their keys or cards think that their only option is to go to the dealer, which can be a long process that could leave you waiting for a long time to receive your new key. Instead, you can contact a locksmith who can make the replacement Renault key at a much cheaper cost and in a fraction of the time it takes for an auto dealer to make it. Keys and key cards may be damaged or even fail, this is usually due to the internal mechanisms of the card bending and cracking over time. Certain Renault key repair specialists are able to repair these cards however this is an interim solution. The card will most likely fail in the near future. A professional locksmith can remove the chip from the old key and then use laptop software to create a new key for your Renault car. This will restore the function of your remote and enable you to start your car as normal. This will also help keep your car safe against theft, as only the right keys will activate the ignition immobiliser. Immobilisers Immobilisers stop your car from being hot-wired or driven with a non-existent key. Since 1998, they have been mandatory in the UK for all new cars. They are embedded into the keys or fobs of your car. When the key is activated, a code is sent to the ECU (Electronic Control Unit). If the code doesn't match, then the ECU disables certain components needed to operate the engine and then drive the car away. This stops criminals from using specialized devices that copy the signal that is generated by your key to send it to the ECU of the car in order to enable it to start. This has drastically reduced car thefts because it would be extremely difficult to steal cars with this technology, which is why insurance companies will typically offer an increase on your premium if it is installed. The immobiliser is typically hidden in the head of the car key. It is a microchip that can be activated by inserting the key into the ignition barrel. A coil inside the barrel reads the microchip, and then sends an alert to the ECU. This signal can only be removed with a programmed or removed key. A few early Renault models used static codes that could be copied using special devices, however modern versions have been updated to use changing or rolling security codes which can only be duplicated using the right technology. This has significantly increased the effectiveness of these systems and is why it's essential to only have such anti-theft devices installed by Thatcham Research approved professionals.

Key Cards The hands-free card is an increasingly popular feature in Renault's vehicles. The small device can be used to unlock and start the car and also allow drivers to control various other functions, like the lighting and sound welcome sequence, and it can even act as a replacement for the traditional car key even when the driver isn't driving. The idea behind the hands-free card dates back to 2001 in the year 2001, when Renault was planning to launch its Laguna II saloon. One of the designers, Bernard Dumondel, was staying in the hotel when he realized how easy it was to lock the room with the use of a magnetic card. He developed the idea further and eventually made it a standard feature in Renault's automobiles. You will need a card-reader installed in the vehicle's centre console to make use of the handsfree card. The reader and card can be programmed with the AVDI/PROTAG software available from Abrites. Remote Buttons Renault has long-standing standing as a leader in innovation. Renault was the first to create a 'hands-free card', which is a small device which allows you unlock your car and start it without having to touch the handle. It was the first time a car maker could offer this kind of technology to its customers, and it changed the way that drivers drove. Its design made it simple to get into and out of automobiles. It is among the most popular features of any car today. But how does it work? The key card is an internal microprocessor which must be programmed for the vehicle. This is done with a special programmer such as the AVDI. The key also has the ability to transmit its own identification number which allows it to connect with the car's immobiliser system. The chip in the key is able to detect the moment you press the button on the remote and tells the vehicle to respond the same way. This could be anything from opening the doors, to changing the radio station or setting the temperature control. G28 Car Keys is what makes a Renault a highly technologically advanced piece of equipment. The “hands-free card” was the idea of a design team led by Bernard Dumondel. He was working on the Laguna II, a saloon that was said to be the lifestyle car of the 21st century. He was in an hotel and was attempting to use his room keys. He realized that he could create an ignition key that could unlock and start the car by simply touching it. The key consists of an outer casing (usually black) buttons as well as a chip transponder an aluminum blade. The case can be swapped by using a key with the transponder chip from a different Renault remote key. This is an easy and effective solution if your key has been seriously damaged, such as if its buttons have been damaged or worn out. However, if you have a new key but it won't start your car this is probably because the immobiliser isn't transferred to the new key. To test, hold the old key near the new one. The car should begin.
