Keys
Lost car keys are a common problem and can be a troublesome issue to solve and obtaining an alternative key from a dealer is expensive.

All you will need is an VIN number and evidence of ownership to enable them to do the job. They will also need to know the kind of key you require. They can provide flip keys, remotes and even Fobs. They will also be able to help you with the programming of any new keys.
Remotes
Most Seat drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement keys from a dealer is expensive and time consuming. seat arona key is because most dealers will programme the key using the car's computer which will need to be reset. However, many people buy second-hand keys off the internet that are not programmed to their car. This can be a much cheaper alternative to going to the dealer. But, these key will not start the car because they will not have a transponder chip inside them. You can see the chip (yellow) in this picture below, it is a Dual Inline Package or DIP 18 pin chip. There are also a diode, transistor and resonator, all these parts make up the key's circuit.
Immobilisers
The amount of thefts from cars began to decrease when car immobilisers began to become popular in the late 1990s. However thieves are always on the lookout for ways to bypass security systems. The first immobilisers could be bypassed by scanning the chip's code and then copying it onto a blank key. However, technology has advanced and thieves have to devise new methods to get around security systems.
Fortunately the majority of the immobilisers we sell and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means that they have been tested and approved by the Thatcham Research organisation. This not-for-profit organization is the grading and approval system for aftermarket automotive alarms and security devices, including car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved immobiliser device is activated it will send a coded message to the Engine Management System of the vehicle, which stops the engine from running until the correct key is present. This means that if the car is "hot wired" after entry and the engine is cut out within 30 seconds, making it impossible to start.
As with computers, the immobiliser may develop issues, and sometimes the internal battery or the key fob may need replacing. It is recommended to have experts handle the job and make sure everything is installed correctly and works.
Transponders
Transponders are devices that sends back an identification signal when interrogated. This identifies the aircraft to air traffic control when it is operating on a radar system. It also helps maintain the separation between aircrafts. The identifying information sent back by the transponder is different based on the kind of system used.
Transponders are also found in satellites and spacecraft to communicate with Earth systems such as cell phone networks and other communication networks. They receive signals at different frequencies and then retransmit the signals in a different frequency similar to how repeaters in cell phone networks operate.
Transponders with sophisticated technology are commonly found on board aircraft. They are used to monitor the status of the flight and provide navigation information like the aircraft's location speed, altitude, speed and the route. Air traffic controllers utilize the information from these transponders to manage flight paths and ensure safety.
In addition to aircraft transponders, a lot of personal keys include a transponder chip. These chips are passive and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to detect the transponder signal once it is installed into the ignition lock.
The flight deck on most aircrafts has a switch that pilots can activate to turn their transponders on or off. They can also choose an "ident" mode that lets the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk code and helps it stand out in the busy air traffic control screen.
