Remotes The newest Saab automobiles don't rely on traditional metal keys for their security. Instead, they utilize an immobilizer that works on the recognition of a unique chip inside each key. This is why the car will only start when a specific type of key (called”key-fob” or “key-fob”) is used to unlock the car and insert it in the ignition. This is the reason that an Saab owner should always have a spare. The classic metal keys are easy to copy but the problem is that the electronic part of a key-fob must be matched to a specific vehicle in order for it to work. This matching is performed within the car's computer modules that are known as CIM (Column Integration Module) or TWICE (Theft Warning Integrated Central Electronics).

Transponders A transponder or electronic chip, is an electronic chip that is embedded inside the key fob. It sends an unicoded message. It's part of the immobilizer which stops thieves from using a stolen vehicle key to start the car. The transponder signals from the keys are detected by the receiver close to the ignition. The receiver decodes serial numbers of the transmission. If the number matches, the car will start. The majority of cars built in the past two decades use transponder keys. They are also utilized in aircrafts. Air traffic control utilizes them to identify friendly aircraft using an encoded signal, IFF (Identification Friends or Foe). Certain aircraft are equipped transponders in the mode C or S that transmit the identification codes and altitudes to ATC. They also have systems for collision avoidance. saab 93 key G28 of a standard Saab key are simple to duplicate, however the microchip that communicates with the immobilizer is hard to duplicate.

You'll need a brand new, special computer module, as well as the cost of a new key and programming to convince the car that you aren't trying to take it. Immobilizers Immobilizers are another layer of protection to stop thieves from hotwiring your car. They stop the engine from starting without ensuring that the transponder on the key fob is correct. Additionally the majority of cars equipped that have immobilizers are equipped with a warning symbol on the instrument cluster, which indicates that the key isn't within. If you lose your keyfob you'll have to visit an authorized dealer to deactivate it and obtain a replacement one. These systems rely on the encryption of data between the transponder system and the vehicle. However, recent research has shown that these encryption sequences are too easy for computers to crack. They can also be bypassed by hackers who are able to understand the messages going back and forth on the CAN bus. These systems are more advanced than the traditional immobilizers that rely on one fixed code. Newer versions use a system that rolls or changes codes to ensure that the systems are secure. The issue with these versions is that hackers are still able to find ways to hack the code, and then use the key to start your car. In an effort to solve this problem the DST80 was developed with a longer sequence in order to make it more difficult to guess. Researchers also managed to solve it. It's therefore important to keep your key fob in your purse when you're not using it.
