Transponder Key Duplication
Need Your Key Duplicated? Call (708) 584-1031
Vehicle security has come a long way in the last few decades. Many antitheft measures and other advances in vehicle technology have been implemented, leading to a significant reduction in vehicle thefts and similar crimes. Before transponder key technology was widely used, vehicle key duplication was simple. A new key would be cut to match the master key, and that was that. However, vehicles had a relatively high vulnerability when it came to break-ins and carjacking. That’s why manufacturers pushed to improve their anti-theft technology. In the 1990s, this push toward better vehicle security led to the development of transponder chip keys.
Before the keyless entry systems that dominate the market for vehicles manufactured today, transponder keys were an important development in antitheft security. Put simply, a transponder key is one with an electronic chip in the key fob. This chip communicates via radio signals with your vehicle’s internal computer when inserted into the lock. Every transponder chip has to be programmed with a specific, unique code in order to match the coding of your vehicle. Otherwise, even if the key has the exact right cuts, your vehicle’s computer will not recognize it and your car won’t start up.
