If your car is newer, it may have a transponder, or smart key/fob which require programming to match the immobiliser systems within the vehicle. A locksmith for automotives can assist.

Keyless Entry

Keyless entry is a feature that lets you unlock and start your car without having insert a key in the lock. This system makes use of radio signals emitted from the vehicle and a key fob that scans for these signals. If the key fob is within the range of radio signals, it transmits a code back that unlocks the door and deactivates the your vehicle's standard immobiliser which is located in the engine control module (ECU).

Certain systems have a remote ignition feature that allows you to start your car by using the key fob, or a button located on the dashboard. This feature can be a lifesaver in the event that you need to run out to get groceries or if your keys are locked inside the car.

The most obvious benefit of keyless entry is the convenience. You'll have access to your car without having to struggle in the dark with your key, which can be difficult for those who carry a lot of things.

If your keyless entry or start doesn't work It could be because of the battery in your key fob. If this is the problem you'll be able to tell by looking for an option on the back of the key fob which you can press. If this does not work, you could have to take your vehicle to an expert locksmith or dealer to have the key fob programmed.

Immobiliser

The Immobiliser is a built-in anti-theft device that prevents you from starting your car without having a key. It works by comparing the digital code that is stored in the key fob or key with a unique code stored inside the vehicle's ECU. When these codes are in sync then the ECU activates the ignition and fuel system. If the codes don't match then your car will not start in the event that the fuel pump or ignition is blocked.

While the Immobiliser does prevent most thieves from hot-wiring or even starting your car, it's not foolproof and could be defeated by determined criminals. This is why it's crucial to take other reasonable precautions, such as keeping valuables out of sight and not leaving them in the vehicle when you're not in it.

Another method of security is to make use of a faraday pouch which blocks the signal between the key fob and the car's electronics making it difficult for criminals to intercept and copy the signal. The newest Suzuki models also feature an additional security feature that requires the key to be placed close to the ignition when turning it on.

Modern immobilisers are susceptible to attacks from criminals with advanced capabilities, despite these measures. In one study, Jaap Bokslag, a researcher from the University of Amsterdam, attempted to rob three vehicles of a popular brand and then crack the immobiliser in six minutes using known vulnerabilities.

Security System

suzuki car key's are amongst the most popular vehicles on Australian roads and they come with an inbuilt immobiliser system to prevent them being hot wired. When you use the key to start your car, there's a transponder chip within it - a little smaller than the PS1 coin - that sends an individual code to the vehicles electronic control unit (ECU). If the ECU doesn't receive this code when you insert the ignition key into the barrel, your car will not start.

In the years prior to 1996, Suzuki dealers used two different dealer-installed systems. The first was produced by Advance Security. The original keyfob displayed the Suzuki logo on the front, and the FCC ID B23AT54 at the back. The original keyfob has no longer been available, but Remotes Unlimited still offers a 2-button Hellfire Remote (also made by Advance Security).

After 2000 the first year of production, all new Suzukis are equipped with a key-lock feature that is installed by the factory. This lock has an immobiliser in the.

If the chip inside the new key does not match the one in the ECU the car won't start. This issue is a bit tricky to resolve however our Auckland auto locksmiths are adept at fixing it quickly and cost-effectively.

Most Suzuki cars come with a key equipped with microchip (transponder chip) inside. It's smaller than the coin that is in your pocket. When you insert your key into the ignition barrel, the ECU in your vehicle reads the code from this chip, and if it doesn't match it will not start.
