Transponder Chip Keys
If you own a car that was manufactured in the last two decades or so, the odds are that it will require a transponder chip key to start. This technology stops car theft by using the code that can only be deciphered by the computer in the car. The key contains an identical microchip to those used in military aircraft. The chip communicates with the vehicle’s onboard systems via an antenna that is ringed around the ignition cylinder.
The key also has copper wiring connected to the microchip. This wire sends a message to the onboard computer of the car when you turn the key into the ignition. The computer responds by allowing the engine’s to start. If the code is valid, it will stay on and the vehicle will not stop or lock.
Some Mazda keys require programming (transponder keys and remote/fob keys). These can only be programmed by an automotive locksmith. Other keys aren’t required to be programmed. Other keys don’t require the use of code.
Keys for Keyless Entry Systems
Mazda’s Keyless Entry System allows you to open and start your vehicle using only one keyfob. The key fob is equipped with an inbuilt security chip that emits a signal to the car’s electronics that allows it to open the doors and ignition. Some models even have an unlocked key to start the engine.
Every time the keyfob gets hit, a 40-bit code is generated to keep the transmitter and the receiver in sync. The codes are generated by the receiver and transmitter using a pseudo-random generator so that they don’t repeat.
If you’re experiencing issues with your Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry, it could be because the battery in the fob is low or the transmitter inside your car has a malfunction. If the issue isn’t resolved then bring the key fob to Holiday Mazda in Fond du Lac, WI, to have a technician take a look. If you have a spare electronic key, bring it with you to use while you wait for your Mazda dealer to resolve the issue. Also, remove the plate connected to the key set and keep it in a secure place (not in your vehicle). This will give you the code needed if you need to purchase a replacement keyfob.
