Some models require that the chip inside the key be reprogrammed in order to work with the vehicle's immobiliser system.

Some lexus key fob replacement models are built with a device that combines the key head and the remote. These are easier to replace, since there is no separate chip needed. This type of key can also be a little cheaper.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are in the keys of nearly all new vehicles manufactured after 1995. They can be used to disarm immobiliser systems. If you have a key with a chip in it the head has a plastic cover that can be pulled off to reveal an L-shaped metal key. A transponder-chip replacement lexus key key or fob is a process that involves multiple stages.

A transponder is a device with Non-Volatile Memory. It contains a set windings, which are very delicate wires that are twisted around the tube. They resemble the ones in an electric motor. These windings produce a coded message that the car will read. If the code is correct the car will start.

There are two kinds of transponder chips, the one is known as the 80-bit, while the second is known as the circle + (General Motors). The first is reusable however it must be unlocked by a special machine to function in a different compatible vehicle.

Immobiliser Systems

Immobiliser systems are electronic security measures which prevent thieves from starting up your car.

When your fob or key is inserted into the ignition, it transmits the code to a receiver within the ECU. The ECU compares this code with the one that is stored in its memory, and it activates both the fuel system and the ignition circuit if they are compatible. If the codes don't match then the engine will not start even in the event that the ignition circuit is short-circuited by a thief.

The procedure of replacing keys or fobs involves a multi-stage procedure that includes cutting the new blade with precision and programming it to ensure that it works with the car's system.
