Transponder Chips

The majority of Peugeot automobiles manufactured after 1995 have a transponder embedded in their keys. It's a miniature electronic chip which has non-volatile memory a kind of memory that doesn't need constant energy for retention. There are also windings which are very delicate wires that are woven around a tube. These windings resemble the ones found in an electric motor. When the key is in the ignition barrel the Peugeot immobiliser system is notified of the information and, if correct, the engine will start.

This makes it harder for a novice or old-school car burglar to wire a Peugeot. It's not foolproof and this type of security mechanism can easily be bypassed with the right information.

A professional locksmith is able to create an extra Peugeot with transponder. The key fob must to be removed (using pliers or a screwdriver). Once this is removed, the locksmith can take out the transponder chip, and then place it on a piece of tape before attaching it near to the ignition lock. They will then be able try to start the car with the key disassembled. If the chip doesn't work then it can be repositioned.

Immobilisers

Immobilisers are a standard feature in nearly all modern vehicles. They stop the car from being started when it's not powered by a key or key fob that's been authorized. When they are activated by these immobilisers, they send an unicode code to the car's ECU. If the code does not match that of the vehicle's ECU, the ECU won't let the engine start. It will also disable the starter motor as well as the fuel pump.

While they are effective in preventing theft from cars, they must be maintained from time to period to ensure that thieves can't find ways around them. For instance researchers have claimed to hack into certain security systems and had the car running in less than 30 minutes.

To prevent this, insurance-approved immobilisers need to be able to shut down two of the three principal components that allow a car to run; for instance, the ignition system, programmed fuel system and the starter motor. These kinds of security are called class 1 and are the most secure you can get without having a full alarm system installed as well.

They can be reset by an auto locksmith having access to dealer-standard equipment. This means they can come to you at your workplace or at home and be able to cut programs, cut and deliver new Peugeot keys weeks before a dealership is equipped to do this at only a fraction of the price.

Some thieves have discovered ways to interfere with the signal between the fob and the vehicle thus allowing them access to the vehicle. To counter this most of the newer fobs come with security features such as pseudo-random codes to prevent the same unlocking code from being sent repeatedly.

Modern fobs do a lot more than just unlock the car. They can also shut the windows or even summon and park the vehicle by pressing one button. This feature is particularly useful when there's a car within close proximity when parking. Certain key fobs include the panic button, which could be useful in the event of an emergency. Some experts suggest keeping your car's key fob by the bedside so you can hit the panic button if you notice suspicious sounds in the night.
