To program your new key fob, you must first ensure that your vehicle is off and that all the doors are closed. Press the lock button on the first keyfob. Wait until it chimes or it turns the locks. Repeat this procedure to program each key fob. The procedure varies slightly depending on the car manufacturer, so it is best to consult your user manual for specific instructions.

Some car manufacturers prevent you from reprogramming your own fobs without having access to the equipment of the manufacturer. Others, like Mercedes, require that you go to a dealership in order to get a key fob reprogrammed. This approach isn't ideal because it requires the use of a dealer's special tools, and it's usually expensive.

Transponder chip

The transponder chip is a small microchip with a unique code. When it is placed in the ignition the transponder chip transmits a radio signal to the immobilizer system of the car key programmers. The computer in the car then decodes the signal and determines whether or not it matches a valid key. If the signal is not the one it is it will turn off the ignition to stop the car from starting. This makes it much more difficult to steal a car from thieves.

The majority of modern cars are equipped with this security feature. But, as with any electronic device the transponder chip could sometimes malfunction or fail.

This will make sure that only you can start your car and keep it safe against thieves. It is crucial to keep in mind that a car that has a transponder chips cannot be operated with a standard key, and can only be started using the original.
