Transponder Keys In contrast to older styles of keys that still require a mechanical insert into the cylinder of ignition, newer car keys come equipped with a tiny electronic chip in the key's head. These chips emit a small signal when they are inserted into the ignition, which is recognized by the immobilizer of the vehicle. If the immobilizer is able to recognize the signal and determines that it matches the code, it will release the ignition cylinder and allow the vehicle to start. If the immobilizer doesn't recognize the signal, it'll stop the engine from turning over and will deter thieves from trying to wire the car.

Based on the specific car you have, the key may need to be programmed by using a different process and programming pattern. Fortunately, this isn't an issue for locksmiths, as they have access to the same equipment that dealerships for cars use. Most locksmiths can reprogram the chip in just a few minutes.
