Renault has a long tradition of innovation. It was the first company to use remote central locking in a production vehicle. Paul Lipschultz invented this technology for Niemens an automotive manufacturer of security components. This was a significant leap in the direction of safety for cars.

Remotes

Renault's hands free cards are still widely used in their vehicles despite the fact that smartphones appear to be replacing them. In fact, they're present in the majority of vehicles Renault sells and their use rate has been rising in recent years. In this video, Pascaline of Renault's products division explains the most important components of these cards and explains how they function.

Renaults have a fairly complicated immobiliser system, and it's important to be aware of the basics before trying to unlock a car without the use of a key. Certain cars come with an emergency lock that is attached to the handle of the passenger door that is a good option if keys stop working or the batteries are out. This is a viable option for those who don't want to hire a locksmith professional.

You'll also require access to a tool such as an apex key or a slim jim in order to take the key fob off and gain entry. If you don't have these tools, you could have to use the screwdriver and hammer to remove the key fob.





You will be able to step to the passenger side and find a small lock inserted into the driver's side panel next to the door handle. This is a measure of security to prevent people from stealing another vehicle or locking themselves inside their own. This is a basic but effective security feature that can save you time and stress when you have to swiftly get into your car.

Transponders

Many modern cars use transponders to prevent car theft. These tiny devices, that are attached to the key fob, contain a chip that communicates with the car once it is within of. These chips use a distinct code to identify the key and inform it what vehicle it is associated with.

The chip sends a signal to a pair coils that are attached to the ignition barrel of the vehicle. These coils are activated when the key is within reach and transmit a pulse of electromagnetic energy to the transponder chip. The chip responds by sending a unique identification to the car. The unique code is then used to unlock the doors and start the engine.

Similar technology was also used in military aircraft during the World War 2 era to help air traffic controllers identify them on radar. The aviation industry still utilizes this type of chip code message.

In the past, these systems were considered to be unclone-proof. This was due to the fact that there were only 74 Quadrillion (74,000,000,000,000,000) possible codes for each transponder. The technology behind these chips has been improved and they are no longer replicable. This has led many auto locksmiths to upskill their knowledge by learning how to read and write the newer types of chips.

renault key card replacement are very complicated in the way they function when it comes to their keys and immobilisers. There are two major mechanisms that affect how the new key is programmed into the car. The older system uses a "kill switch" that connects to one of the essential car's starting components in order to disable it in the event that the correct key isn't present. These are delicate devices that require a specialist to identify and fix them if they fail.

The latest system is simpler to use. It utilizes rolling security code and advanced cryptography to thwart copying of the code from the key or ECU. This is what will be used in the replacement keys we supply.

Some models will even use an extra ring antenna that isn't identified by standard transponder scanners, and is exclusive to the vehicle. This is very effective at blocking hotwiring, and is very hard to bypass using a standard keys or an emulator for transponders. We have a product known as the Renault Antenna Emulator that we can use in order to bypass this type of immobiliser on Renault Clio phase 2 models and some Renault commercial vehicle fitted with ID46 Transponders. It emulates the operation of a genuine key transponder within the ring antenna. It can be used to replace damaged or lost keys without having to disassemble the ECU. It is Thatcham tested and approved to provide additional security for customers of motor insurance.
