Transponder Keys Contrary to older models of keys that still require a mechanical insertion into the cylinder of ignition, modern car keys are equipped with a small electronic chip embedded in the head of the key. The chips emit a signal when they are inserted into the ignition. This signal is then detected by the immobilizer of the vehicle. If the immobilizer detects the signal and finds it matches its code it will turn off the ignition cylinder and allow the vehicle to begin. If the immobilizer isn't able to recognize the signal, it will block the engine from turning and will deter thieves from trying to connect the car with hot wires. If you own transponder keys, they will typically have a bigger head made of rubber or plastic than a standard key. The key's head is where the transponder chip is, and it has to be programmed in order for the car to recognize it.

Fortunately, this won't be an issue for locksmiths because they have access to the same equipment that dealerships for cars use. Locksmiths can usually reprogram the chip in just a few minutes.
