Renault key replacement can be costly when you don't shop around. Motors has contacted a few companies who offered prices that could reach EUR500 for a replacement key fob.

Instead of going to a Renault dealer and pay their hefty costs, you can have your keys replaced and digitized by a locksmith in your area. This is a faster and less expensive option.

Transponder Keys

Transponder chips can be found in many modern cars. They send out an encrypted message that is compatible with the anti-theft device of your vehicle. This ensures that only the owner with the correct code can open your car, protecting it from theft. It's a simple, but effective way to deter potential thieves. It's also one of the reasons it's worth ensuring that you have a spare working when you lose your car keys.

A normal transponder key will look like an ordinary car key made of metal however it has an aluminum top where the transponder is located. They are available in three different styles: a standard-lock key and the Remote Head Key (RHK), and a Tibbe. There's also the possibility of including a transponder chip into the key fob for additional security.

When you insert the Renault transponder key into the ignition, it starts up after receiving electromagnetic energy from a wire placed around the ignition barrel. The chip sends a signal with the anti-theft code of the car to the engine control unit and if it matches up the car will begin to start.

This technology doesn't stop thieves who are young or old-fashioned from stealing cars, but it does make it harder for thieves to start the vehicle, as they'll have to use a "hot wire device' to start the car.

While it's true that transponder keys cost more than regular metal key types, it's important to remember that they protect your vehicle against theft and are a good investment. They're not just capable of providing an additional layer security, but they are also more difficult to duplicate than metal keys.

Anti-Theft Chips

Renault cars come with an immobiliser system that can stop the car from starting in the event that the correct key isn't used. The majority of Renault keys have a transponder chip within them that can only be programmed for the car it is fitted to, and when the key is inserted into the ignition the chip gives off an electrical signal that is picked up by the immobiliser in the car and the ECU which will then deactivate the engine, thereby preventing theft of your car.

Certain older renault car keys models have keys that appear different from traditional keys for cars. The card is inserted into the dash panel reader and a button is pressed to start your car.

Remote Fobs

A key fob is a small, electronic device that lets you unlock your car without the physical key. It can also serve as an additional remote for other devices, such as the garage door opener or home security system. Key fobs work through radio frequencies. They are similar to the remote control toys' transmitters. When you press the button on the key fob the transmitter sends a code to a receiver in your vehicle or any other device. The receiver interprets the codes and signals to decide how to act.

Modern car key fobs connect to the computer onboard of the vehicle via radio frequency identification technology (RFID). The computer receives a signal from the keyfob and looks for a code that matches the one programmed. When the code is matched, the system will open the door or start the engine.

The technology is also being used in other kinds of vehicles, such as airplanes, trucks, tractors buses/coaches, tanks and even trains. Many manufacturers have integrated the RFID system into their vehicles, making it easier to open doors and start the engine at a press of one button.

The convenience of a key fob can be dangerous, if you're not paying attention. For instance the owner of a CR auto editor once walked into her parking Honda Accord and found all the windows were shut. The key fob transmits an alert that triggers the automatic windows.

You should not only be watching your battery but also ensure that the key fob is connected to the computer onboard of your car securely. A disconnected or loose remote can send the incorrect signal, which can cause malfunctions such as an overheated car engine or an uncontrolled window lowering.

Keep spare keys on hand in the event that your key fob loses power or gets damaged. You should also replace the battery regularly to avoid it losing its charge. Generally, you can find the appropriate battery for your key fob in a hardware retailer or a big-box store. The owner's manual, or the manufacturer's website should have instructions on how to replace it.
