Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are tiny circuits integrated into your key to communicate with the immobilizer. When you turn the key into the ignition, the chip transmits an ID code to the vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM). If the ID code matches that stored in the BCM memory, the immobilizer will turn off and the engine will begin. If the ID code does not match, the security lamp will light up and your car won't be able to start.

Smart Keys

Smart keys aren't only a convenient feature. They also make it more difficult for thieves to get into your car. Instead of broadcasting the same frequency as traditional key fobs, smart keys broadcast different encrypted signals each when they unlock a door or remotely open the trunk. A computer in your car then recognizes these changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the correct key matches the new signal.

A BMW smart key, for instance is equipped with a tiny LCD touchscreen that can perform the basic functions of a typical key fob (locking, unlocking and keyless start), but also gives the option to store individual driver settings, shut off windows or sunroofs as well as command your car to automatically park from the key. These types of features makes smart keys stand apart from their conventional counterparts.

Smart keys aren't entirely secure. If someone who is close to you receives the low frequency transmissions transmitted between your smart keys and your car, they could gain access to your vehicle (or at the very least attempt to) by picking up on these signals while you're away from your car for example, at the gas station or in a restaurant.

The good news is that the majority of smart keys have a backup battery which kicks in when your main battery goes out. Additionally, many smart keys' batteries are easy to replace and generally don't require any specialized tools.
