What is a car key reprogramming service and how does it work?

Majority of the modern cars are using a keyless entry system to start the engine. These keys are often known as transponder key, chip key, immobilizer key, remote key ,smart key ,proximity key, push-to-start key etc. All these keys are programmed/coded using a computer system.
How do these keys work?
These keys have an electronic chip installed in them called a transponder chip. The chip stores a unique code which is understood by the car engine control unit(ECU). When you turn on the ignition, your vehicle’s engine will start running if the key code matches with the ECU otherwise the car immobilizer system will not start the car engine.
How do we reprogram your key?
As a professional, our vehicle locksmiths have all reprogramming tools that are required to fix these problems. After arriving at your location, our technician will carefully look for the issue that is causing trouble. He will use a diagnostic tool to connect the coding machine to the On-Board Diagnostic system (car’s computer system) to understand the problem in depth.
Next, he will try to solve the issue by fixing the bugs or by simply reinstalling the codes in the chip. If the issue doesn’t resolve, he will program a new car key that would match your car ignition system.
Reasons of faults in programmable keys
There could be a lot of reasons why your car fob keys are not working. The following reasons could be considered when you are facing any key related issues:
-Dead/Weak Batter
Usually we don’t pay attention to batteries being used in our car key. The most simple solution to this problem could be replacing the battery and getting a new one. Because, these smart keys may stop working once their battery becomes old or weak.
-Replacing your car battery
Be careful while replacing your car battery because it may reset and malfunction your car key programming. If it’s reset after changing your car battery, call our technician to re-code it.
-Internal Damage
Damage caused by water and moisture can destroy your key entirely. Keep it away from water and consider using a key cover for extra protection.
-Transponder defects
As I have explained earlier, the transponder chip is also a main component of a key and it communicates with the car immobilizer system to start the car. Any fault in this chip will not allow your vehicle to start.
-Immobilizer issues
Car immobilizer system may not respond if your car meets an accident. If this is the case, we can help you fix it.
-Internal parts
A transponder key contains electronic components and fuses in it, burning of any component inside the key will create a problem for you. Although it is not very common, the possibility still exists. But, what should you worry about if we are here to program your key?
-Weak Signals
Any interference from other electrical devices or degradation of signals from the key fob can disturb the communication between the car locking system and the transponder.
