Anti-Theft Chips

Renault cars come with an immobiliser that stops the vehicle from starting if the key is not the correct key. The majority of Renault keys have a transponder in them that can be programmed to the car they are fitted to. When the key is inserted the chip emits a signal that is picked up by both the immobiliser system and ECU. This disables the engine of your vehicle to prevent theft.

Some older Renault models come with a keycard that looks distinct from traditional car keys. The card is placed into the panel of the dashboard and a button pressed to start your vehicle.

Remote Fobs

A key fob, or small electronic device, lets you unlock your vehicle without a physical key. It can also serve as an additional remote for other devices, including the garage door opener, or the home security system. Key fobs function by using radio frequencies, similar to the transmitters in a remote-control toy. When you press a button on the fob, it transmits a code to the receiver in your car or another device. The receiver interprets the code and decides what action to perform.

Modern car key fobs use radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to communicate with the vehicle's onboard computer. The computer receives the signal from the key fob, looking for an exact code that matches a preprogrammed one. If the code is identified it will open the door or start the engine.

Other types of vehicles are also utilizing the technology, including planes and trucks buses/coaches, tanks, and planes. Many car manufacturers have integrated the RFID system into their vehicles. This makes it much easier to start the engine or open doors with a click of a single button.

While the convenience of a car's key fob is appealing, it could be risky if you don't pay to your surroundings. For instance the owner of a CR auto editor once walked out to her parked Honda Accord and found all the windows were down. That's because the key fob sent an alert to activate the automatic windows.

Apart from monitoring the battery, be sure that your key fob has an easy view of its buttons as well as an encrypted connection to the car's onboard computer. A loose or disconnected remote could send the wrong signal, which can cause malfunctions such as an overheated car engine or uncontrolled window lowering.

Keep spare keys handy in the event that your key fob loses power or is damaged. It's also an ideal idea to replace the battery periodically to avoid losing its charge too quickly. In general, you can purchase the correct battery for your remote from an online retailer or hardware stores. The owner's manual or the manufacturer's website should contain instructions on how to replace it.
