Car Key Cutting Explained
Cutting a car key is more than just bending metal. It is a complicated procedure that ensures security, functionality and the longevity of keys.
It is not unusual to lose your car key or even break it in the lock. To ensure that you are able to always drive your car you'll need a new key cut.
Transponder Keys
Transponder chips are likely be fitted in vehicles that were built in the last 20 years. These chips are tiny microchips inside the key's handle which transmit an electronic signal to the car's onboard computer when you are using it. The computer onboard examines the digital serial number of the chip before allowing the car to begin. This prevents thieves from taking over your vehicle since they'd need to be aware of the unique serial number.
The microchip in the key transmits a low-level signal to the car's receiver. This radio signal activates the microchip, and it then sends an encoded code to the car's onboard computer. The car will be able to recognize this code and only allow it to start only if it is the correct one. This prevents the use of "hot wiring" and other methods of stealing cars.
Car keys with chips can be made at locksmiths that offer these services. They can also be purchased at a few automotive stores like AutoZone. They have a huge variety of keys, and can help you find the best one for your vehicle. They can even help you program the chip to your vehicle, which is essential for it to function.
Laser cut keys are more secure than flat keys. These keys feature an cylinder for locking that is much harder to pick, and are only duplicated using expensive laser key cutting machines or specially designed software. This technology is most common in luxury cars, but is now available in a wide range of low-cost models.
The VATS (vehicle-anti-theft system), key is another kind of key that is difficult to duplicate. These keys come with a resistor black on the blade of the key. It can be programmed to one of fifteen possible values to prevent it from starting a vehicle that's not designed to. These keys are costly and require an instrument for programming keys, which is only available at certain locksmiths.
Keys to VATS
Before the advent of transponder keys and cars equipped with computer chips to control the car's ignition, GM used something called VATS (Vehicle Anti-Theft System). VATS uses an ordinary key that has a resistor pellet embedded inside it to confirm that the correct key is used to start the vehicle. The black VATS Pellet in the middle of a VATS Key is not a smart chip like those found on most modern keys. It is merely carbon or a block that is sized to have an electrical resistance value.
GM employed 15 different resistance values for the VATS pellets and attached them to the key's blade, so that when the key is turned in the ignition, a coded signal is sent to the module. If the signal is in line with that of the transistor in a VATS pellet, then the relay in starter circuit will turn on and the engine will begin to run. This doesn't make a car safe from theft, but it will delay the thief by at minimum 15 to 20 minutes.
After a prolonged period of usage, the VATS module can begin to wear out. The two small wires in the ignition move each time the key is introduced. As time passes the wires could start to break. Once enough of the wires break, the signal to the module is not received and it will not start the car.
You can solve this problem at home by decoding your VATS key. You'll require a multimeter as well as an indicator chart to determine the resistance value of your key, but it is not that difficult. You can determine the resistance value by placing one of the leads on the metal prongs on both sides of your key.
This is a great method to test a brand new key and see whether it will work in your car. Be sure to remove the key from the ignition prior to testing it, otherwise the new key could be displaying an incorrect VATS value and not work in your car.
Smart Key Fobs
Key fobs today do more than simply unlock or start the car. They often have advanced features that many owners are not aware of. They can be used as a security device or as a deterrent to theft. They can lock and unlock your door from a distance, make chirping noises to assist you in finding your vehicle when you're in a hurry or activate it by pressing a button. This is a lot more functionality than you can obtain from a traditional keychain remote. However, all that additional capabilities can mean that smart key fobs may be more expensive to replace than traditional keychain remotes and they typically need to be programmed by the dealer.
Some dealers will charge up to $100 for a single smart fob. This is a significant amount to pay for a product that spends much of its time in purses and pockets, which is where it's easily dropped, damaged, or exposed to extreme humidity and temperatures. Fortunately, some automakers have developed methods to shield smart key fobs from the most common types of electronic attacks like relay attacks. These are often combined with remote start hacks that allows thieves access to your vehicle's settings by the transmission of a fake signal from another transmitter nearby.
To protect a smart fob you can put it in a casing made of metal or even an RFID blocking case. This will prevent the transmission of these signals. The convenience of the technology is diminished if you must remove your key fob every time you need to use it from the case.
Certain policies that are more recent such as auto club memberships or extended warranties will pay for a replacement fob, or reimburse you if it's lost. You can also save money on new-car dealership charges and get your fob cut at a hardware store or locksmith who offers key fob cloning.
For the majority of drivers who want to buy an extra key fob will depend on how important your car's keyless entry and push-button start functions are. In any event it is advisable to keep a spare fob or key in case in case you lose it. And if you need to buy a new replacement, Batteries Plus has a large selection of fobs to fit most cars and trucks. Additionally, we provide an easy, fast service that is approximately 50% less than what you'd spend at the dealership.
Traditional Keys
Traditional mobile car key cutting keys are a single piece of steel that has grooves cut into it to fit into a particular lock. These keys will unlock your locks and start your vehicle, provided that you haven't replaced them by an electronic key or a remote key. The only disadvantage of using a traditional car key is that you have to physically insert it into the ignition to start the engine. If your key from the past is lost, broken or stolen, you'll have to visit an Gainesville locksmith to have a new one made from the blank.
Based on the amount of time that has passed since the last time you had your keys cut, there are several different options to choose from when it comes time to get another copy. Certain keys are cut using mechanical machines, while others are laser-cut with added security features.
Some of these modern features that come with the modern types of keys include encryption and other anti-theft mechanisms. The encryption ensures that only the correct key can be used to start your car making it much more difficult for thieves to duplicate keys or pick locks. Other security features that prevent theft include transponder chips, which are embedded into the keys to communicate with your car and make it work only when it's within the range of your car.
If you choose to make use of a traditional key, your locksmith can create the new key using an ordinary cutter machine that is available at most hardware stores. This is cheaper than a key fob, or a transponder, and you are still able to operate your trunk, locks, and doors.
Another option is to have the traditional car keys replaced with a laser cut version with a unique pattern. These keys first came out in the late 1990s, and are now a popular option for people who want to add extra protection to their automobiles. Typically, laser cut keys contain transponder chips that are programmed to work only with the specific vehicle you own. If the chips aren't present in your vehicle it won't receive the signals emanating from the key and won't be able to start.
