Immobilisers

Immobilisers protect your vehicle from being hot-wired, or driven with a non-existent key. They have been compulsory in the UK on all new cars since 1998. They are built into the fobs or keys of your car. They work by sending a code to the car's ECU (Electronic Control Unit) when the key is activated and the car is started. If the code does not match, the ECU disables certain components needed to operate the engine and then drive the car away.

This prevents criminals from using specialized equipment that copies the signal emitted from your key to transmit it to the ECU of the car to allow it to start. This has drastically reduced car thefts since it is extremely difficult to steal cars with this technology. This is the reason why insurance companies usually give you a discount on your premium if it is installed.

The immobiliser is usually hidden in the head of the car key. It is a microchip that is activated by inserting the key into the ignition barrel. A coil that is inserted around the barrel detects the microchip and transmits a message to the ECU. This signal can only be deactivated using a programmed or removed key.

Early Renault models had static codes that were easily copied using special devices. Modern versions employ changing or rolling codes, which can only be duplicated by the appropriate technology.

Key Cards

The hands-free card is an integral feature of Renault's vehicles. The small device can be used to unlock and begin the vehicle and also allow drivers to control various other functions, such as the lighting and sound welcome sequence, and can even serve as a substitute for the traditional car key when the driver isn't driving. The hands-free card was first developed in 2001, as Renault prepared to launch the Laguna II saloon. One of the designers, Bernard Dumondel, was staying in a hotel when he saw how simple it was to lock the room with the use of a magnetic card. He further developed the idea and eventually made it a standard feature on Renault's automobiles.

You'll require a card-reader installed in the vehicle's central console to be able to use the hands-free card. The reader and key card can be programmed with the AVDI or PROTAG software available from Abrites.

Remote Buttons

Renault has had a long-standing reputation for innovation. Renault was the first to develop a "hands free card', a small device that lets you unlock your car and begin it without even touching the handle. It was the first time a car maker could offer this kind of technology to its customers, and it completely changed the way that drivers drive. Its design made it easier to get into and out of automobiles and is one of the most frequently used features of any vehicle on the road today.

How does it work? The key card itself contains a tiny microprocessor which has to be programmed to the specific vehicle. This is done with an specialized programer like the AVDI. The key is also able to transmit its own identification number, which is used to connect with the immobiliser system of the car.

When you hit a button on the remote, the chip in the key detects this and tells the car to respond the same way. This can be anything from opening doors to switching radio stations or setting the thermostat. This is what makes a Renault an extremely technologically advanced piece of equipment.

The 'hands-free card' was the brainchild of a design team headed by Bernard Dumondel. He was working on the Laguna II, a saloon that was believed to be the modern-day car of the 21st century. He was in a hotel and tried to use his room keys. He realized that he could create an ignition key that could lock and start the vehicle by just touching it.

The key is comprised of an outer case (usually black) with buttons along with a transponder chip as well as the key blade made of plastic. The case can be replaced by using a key that contains the transponder chip of another Renault remote key. This is easy to do and is a great option if the key has suffered serious damage, like if the buttons have broken off or deteriorated. If you have a new key but it isn't able to start your car, this is likely because the immobiliser was not transferred. To test this, hold the old key close to the new one and your car should begin.
