Renault Clio Car Key Replacement

It is best to call a professional locksmith when the key to your car from Renault is damaged or lost. They can make replacement keys and even disable the old one, making it much more difficult for thieves to take your vehicle.

The process is much more efficient than going through the main dealer.

Chipped Keys

The Renault Clio is a supermini car that was launched in 1990 and is in production to this day. It is among the most sought-after cars in Europe and has been named European Car of the Year twice. The reason for this popularity is its ability to provide drivers the convenience of being in a position to lock and start the vehicle with just one key. A transponder chip is embedded inside the head of every key to ensure that only genuine Renault Clio can be used to unlock and start the vehicle. Beishir Lock and Security will replace your key for a fraction of the cost of a dealer in the event that it is damaged or lost.

A transponder chip is an electronic micro-chip built into the head of the car key that gets it's name from the fact that it contains an transponder or transmitter as well as a receiver. When the key is put into the ignition lock and turned, an antenna ring on the car's immobilizer sends a radio signal to the transponder chip. This chip then responds by sending an encrypted message to the antenna ring that is matched with the serial number that is stored in the immobilizer system of the car and, if the match is correct, allows the engine to be started.

This is the way a modern Renault is designed. It is a vital security measure to stop thieves from copying your key and using it to start your car and then selling it on the black market. The chips are not powered by a battery but instead are energized by radio signals they receive from the immobilizer.

Transponder keys can also be sensitive to mechanical shocks and submersion in water, therefore care should be taken when using your key to avoid accidental damage. For example, dropping your key on an examination surface or submerging it into water can cause the chip to be short circuited, and the key will cease to function.

A renault clio key is more expensive to replace than a basic non-transponder key, but the extra costs for manufacturing are worth it since it helps protect your vehicle from theft. Some manufacturers do not require specialized equipment for programming a new key chip however, it will depend on the year and model of your car. Some manufacturers, like Chevrolet and Ford use a transponder password that can be copied with an ordinary key programmer.

Key Cards

Renault key cards let you unlock your car and start it without needing to insert the key into the lock. The key card makes use of radio waves to communicate with the car's sensors. These are located all over the car to locate the card and when it is near enough, the doors will be opened. If the button is pressed the car will turn the ignition on. These keys are very popular and easy to use. However, they can be damaged and the card will have to be replaced in the event that this happens.

Behind the minimalist plastic case of the hands-free device is a sophisticated electronic chip programmed to continuously "communicate" with the car that it is paired. When it's approached, it emits a radio signal containing an access code that's verified by receiver-transmitters in the vehicle. If it's recognised the vehicle unlocks, and unlocks all its doors automatically. It is locked when you take off the card.

It is essential to have a spare Renault card in case you lose your primary card. It will ensure that you can still drive your vehicle until you can wait for an alternate key fob or transponder chip to arrive. If you have lost your keys, it is best to check every place in which you keep them. Also, notify your insurance company as soon as possible so they can locate your vehicle.

There are companies that specialize in repairing Renault key cards in the event that you lose it or it breaks. These experts can make an exact replica of your car key fob for significantly less than it costs to buy from a dealer. Beishir Lock and Security, for instance is a company which has the largest collection of Renault key fobs in the UK and can create replacements at less than the cost of the dealership.

Immobilisers

An immobiliser is an anti-theft device that blocks your vehicle from starting if your key has the wrong code or has been used to start it illegally. In England and Wales they are required since 1998, although certain cars were equipped with them earlier. If you're not sure if your Renault has one, the easiest method of checking is consulting a mechanic, or visiting your car manufacturer's website and contact them.

The immobiliser system is activated by sending a signal to a reader located on the dashboard. The reader responds to the signal from the key. If the codes match, identical, the car will start. If the codes don't match, then it will not start. It will also disable two other functions. Most often, it is fuel and air conditioning.

If you own a brand newer Renault car the key is likely to have a transponder within its head. This means that only genuine Renault key can be used to activate the immobiliser. If you own a second hand Renault key, you will have to replace it by a locksmith in order to stop thieves from stealing it for your vehicle.

It is important to remember that this system may not be foolproof and even more sophisticated thieves could still be able to defeat it. In 2014 an investigator by the name of Bokslag was able to crack three different kinds of Renault cars' immobiliser systems within 10 seconds. The method he used was a laptop and an antenna to intercept messages sent via the vehicle's CAN-bus.

You can make the immobiliser system on your Renault more secure by storing your keys in a faraday pouch that blocks signals and prevents them from being thrown from doors and windows. You can also purchase a steering lock that will prevent your car from being driven if the keys are taken out of it.

If you're worried about theft, service it's a good idea talk to your insurance provider and see if they offer discounts on the installation of additional security features added. Thatcham Research has a list of security devices that are approved by the company and you may be able lower your premium substantially by installing an immobiliser from the aftermarket or other mechanical deterrents, such as the steering lock.

Remote Fobs

A key fob is a small electronic device that connects to a computer in the vehicle to perform various functions. When a keyfob's activation occurs, it emits radio signals using the unique code. The code is received by a receiver in the car. Once the car recognizes the code, it will allow the driver unlock or start the vehicle. Based on the car the key fob could also control features like the panic alarm, or other security systems.

The majority of key fobs are made to allow drivers to lock and unlock their vehicle from a distance. The buttons on the fob may also be used to control other functions such as starting the engine or lowering the window. A lot of modern cars come with a key fob that can also control the power sunroof. This feature can be especially beneficial on hot days and keep the interior cool.

The key fob is usually a small metal device, although some are made of plastic. Some are flat and thin, while others are round and include a button on each side. Keys aren't as secure as traditional keys, however they offer a great deal of convenience and security.

Key fobs employ a process known as rolling codes to stop hacking and cloning attempts. When a user presses a button, the key fob as well as the car's receiver generate a new code. This makes it almost impossible for criminals to duplicate signals and gain access to the car.

Certain older devices are able to be programmed by the owner, while others require locksmith or dealer programming. Owners can program infrared and radio-frequency infrared systems. The newer fobs require a locksmith or dealership to program them with a specific tool or software.

The latest Renault cars, such as the Clio and Megane come with keyless entry systems that can be controlled via a key fob. This is a convenient way to unlock the car and start it, and also helps to prevent key theft. Having extra key fobs can also be helpful in the event of one being damaged or lost.
