WHAT DOES CAR IMMOBILIZER MEAN?

Immobilizer technology has been used in passenger cars since 1995. Since 1998, it has been a mandatory feature in passenger cars.

The immobilizer key contains a passive transponder chip (RFID chip), which contains an electronic code that allows the car to start. When the key is inserted into the ignition lock, a transmitter antenna connected to the ignition lock activates the immobilizer chip in the key. The chip's code is sent to the car's security unit for verification. If the code is correct, the car starts.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU LOSE YOUR CAR KEY?

Don't rely on just one key. If the last key is also lost, you will likely have to have the car towed to a repair shop. When making a new key, we can delete the lost keys from the car's computer.

HOW TO MAKE A NEW CAR KEY?

Depending on the code generation and immobilizer chip manufacturer, the key is made either by copying the original key code to a key blank or by programming a ready-made key to the car's security unit via the car's service port using a tester.

With the tester device, we can also program new remote controls for the car. Our tester device is located in the Viikki shop in Helsinki.

HOW MUCH DOES A NEW CAR KEY COST?

The price of a new car key with an immobilizer chip is €89.00. A new car remote control starts from €149.

Car key copying is possible at our Viikki shop in Helsinki.

CAN THE CAR KEY BE REPAIRED?

In many cases, the car key can be repaired by replacing the shell. Spare shells are available for almost all makes and models. At the same time, we can replace the remote control battery.
