Renault Clio Replacement Key Renault cars have a unique system for keys than most other makes. Instead of the traditional key that can be transformed into a lock, the Renault cars use a keycard that slides into the panel reader in the dash. A button is pressed to activate the card. If you lose your one and only Renault key it can cost time and money getting an alternative from a main dealer. We keep Renault keys and cards in stock so that we you can get back on the road quickly. Transponder Chips Renault offers a variety of immobilisers and keys locks. The latest systems, starting in 2000, all have transponder chips. These are tiny mini circuits embedded in the key. They transmit signals to the computer system in the car. If the signal isn't received the engine won't be able to start. This is an excellent security measure that ensures your car isn't stolen, and only you are capable of starting it. A key replacement that has a chip is slightly more expensive than a standard key. This is due to the additional manufacturing costs that are associated with the micro-circuit. But, you won't be required to shell out an arm and a leg. You can find a locksmith who can create an alternative key with a transponder chip at the price that is lower than what you'd pay at the dealership. Many Renault owners who lose their keys or key cards believe that the only way to get them back is to visit their dealer. This could be a long and tedious process, and you may be waiting some time to receive your new key. Instead, you can contact a locksmith who can make a replacement Renault key at a much lower cost and in only a fraction of the time that it takes a dealership to do so. Keys and keycards can be damaged or even fail. This is usually caused by the internal workings of card bending and cracked over time. Key cards can be repaired by certain Renault key card repairers, however it is only a temporary fix and the card will likely fail again in the future. A professional locksmith can remove the chip from the old key and use laptop software to create a new key for your Renault car. This will restore the functionality of your remote and allow you to start your car in the same way as you normally would. This will also help protect your car from theft since only the right key will be able to activate the immobiliser. Immobilisers Immobilisers are electronic devices that prevent your car from being hot-wired or removed without the right key. They've been required in the UK on all new vehicles since 1998 and are included in your car's keys or fobs. They work by sending a code to your car's ECU (Electronic Control Unit) when the key is activated and the car is started. If the code doesn't match, the ECU disables certain components that are required to start the engine and allow the car to go away. This is a way to stop criminals from using special equipment that copies the signal that is generated by your key and transmits it to the ECU of the car to allow it to start. This has drastically reduced car thefts since it is extremely difficult to steal vehicles with this technology. This is the reason why insurance companies usually give you a discount on your premium if this technology is fitted. The immobiliser is usually hidden in the head of the car key. It is a microchip that is activated by inserting the key into the ignition barrel. A coil inside the barrel reads the microchip, and then sends an alert to the ECU. This signal can only be removed using a programmed or removed key. Some early Renault models used static codes that could be copied by special devices, but the most recent versions have been upgraded to utilize rolling or changing security codes which can only be duplicated with the appropriate technology. This has greatly improved the effectiveness of these systems and is why it's important to only install such anti-theft systems installed by Thatcham Research approved professionals.

Key Cards The hands-free card is a key element in Renault's popular range of vehicles. The small device is used to unlock the vehicle and allow it to start however it also allows drivers to control other functions, such as the welcome lighting and the sound sequence. It could even replace keys that are traditional when the driver isn't driving. The concept behind the hands-free card dates to 2001 in the year 2001, when Renault was making preparations to launch their Laguna II saloon. One of the designers, Bernard Dumondel, was staying in the hotel when he realized how simple it was to lock the room using a magnetic card. He further developed the idea and eventually made it a standard feature on Renault's automobiles. You will need a card-reader installed in the vehicle's centre console to be able to use the hands-free card. The reader and card can be programmed with the AVDI/PROTAG programs available from Abrites. Remote Buttons Renault has long had a reputation for its ingenuity. They produced the first 'hands-free card', which is a small device that lets you unlock and start your car without touching the door handle. It was the first technology that a car manufacturer could offer to its customers and changed the way people drive. Its design made it easy to get in and out of cars. It is one of the most popular features of a car today. What is the procedure? The key card itself is a tiny microprocessor which has to be programmed for the specific vehicle. This is done using a special tool such as the AVDI or PROTAG programmer. The key is also able to transmit its own identification number which is used to communicate with the vehicle's immobiliser system. When you hit a button on the remote, the chip inside the key detects this and tells the car to respond the same way. G28CarKeys could be anything from opening doors to switching radio stations or setting the thermostat. This is what makes the Renault a highly technologically advanced piece of equipment. Bernard Dumondel led a team of designers who created the 'hands free card'. He was working on the Laguna II, a saloon that was said to embody the modern-day car of the 21st century. He was staying in a hotel and tried to use his room keys. He realized that he could make an ignition key that could secure the vehicle and then start it by just touching it. The key is made up of an outer casing (usually black) buttons, a chip transponder and a plastic blade. The case can be changed with a key that has the transponder chip from another Renault remote key. This is an easy and effective solution for keys that have been severely damaged, for example the buttons are broken or worn out. If you have a brand new one but it isn't able to start your car, this is probably because the immobiliser was not transferred. To test this, place the old key near the new one. The car should begin.
