Transponder Chip The transponder chip or “chip key” is a microchip that's placed inside the head of your car key, it's also one of the most important safety layers of your vehicle. The term “transponder” originates from the combination of the responder and transmitter. This is because, once the key has been inserted into the ignition, and the key turned, the antenna on your car transmits a radio frequency energy to the transponder chip. The chip then responds with its own unique identification code to the ring that is attached to it and the car's computers can decipher that information and determine whether or not it's a legitimate key. If the key is not a transponder the vehicle will be unable to move. The chip is secured with a polycarbonate layer which prevents it from being copied or cloned using regular mechanical keys.

This is the primary method the immobiliser in your car prevents theft. If the chip's code does not match with the code on the chip, the ECU will block the flow of current from the fuel pump relay to the injection system and prevent the engine from starting. The immobiliser can also disable the starter motor or ignition coil to prevent the engine from getting started by force. Unfortunately the system isn't impervious to hacks.

It's important to note that while an immobiliser makes it harder to steal a car, it doesn't stop thieves from towing away or breaking into the vehicle to get at your possessions.
