The locksmith will then be able attempt to start the car using the key that has been dismantled. If the chip does not work it can be moved.

Immobilisers

Nearly all modern cars come with immobilisers as standard, these prevent the car from starting until it is powered by a valid key or key fob. When activated, these immobilisers send an individual code to the car's ECU. If the code does not match the one in the vehicle's ECU it will mean that the ECU won't allow the engine to start. It will also shut down the starter motor and fuel pump.

While they are efficient in preventing car theft, they should be updated from time to the point that thieves aren't able to find ways to circumvent them. Researchers have stated that they can hack into certain security systems and start cars in less than 30 minutes.

Remote Fobs with Locking

Some criminals have discovered ways to intercept the signal transmitted between the fobs and the cars, allowing them access to vehicles. To stop this most of the newer fobs are equipped with security features, such as pseudo-random code generation to stop the same unlocking code from being sent repeatedly.

Modern fobs do far more than just unlock the car. They can also open the windows or even activate and park the car by pressing a button. This feature is particularly useful when you're stuck in a parking lot with a different driver. Certain key fobs have a panic button that could be helpful in the event of an emergency. Some experts suggest keeping your car key fob close by your bed so that you can hit the panic button in the event that you hear unusual noises in the night.
