Certain Lexus vehicles are equipped with a device that combines the key head and remote. They are much easier to replace, as there is no chip that needs to be replaced. This kind of key may also be a little less expensive.

The head of a key that contains a transponder chip is able to be removed to reveal a steel L-shaped key. A transponder-chip replacement keys or fob is a process that involves multiple stages. It involves cutting the keys precisely and programming the chip to communicate with the vehicle's immobiliser.

A transponder is a device that has Non-Volatile Memory. It has a set of windings that are fine wires coiled around a tube. They look like those in an electric motor. The windings are coded to create a signal that the car can read. If the code is correct, then the car will allow you to start it up.

There are two types of transponder chip. The one is known as the 80-bit, while the second is known as the circle + (General Motors). The former is reusable but needs to be unlocked by a specific machine in order to function in a different compatible vehicle. The latter is a bit more difficult because the previous keys are often damaged and then drilled through or discarded after key cases are replaced. They can be salvaged however for use with an ad-hoc key that doesn't require batteries to operate.

Immobiliser Systems

An immobiliser is an electronic security feature that prevents thieves from starting your vehicle. It operates by sending a signal from your vehicle to the key whenever you attempt to start it. The electronic chip inside the key responds by sending a unique number of codes that must match that of the vehicle to allow it to start. If the codes don't coincide, your engine will shut off immediately to prevent theft.

Modern smart keys and fobs have an embedded transponder which stores electronic security information in a format that is not easily copied. When your key or fob is inserted into the ignition, it transmits this code to a receiver in the ECU. The ECU examines the code against the one in its memory, and it activates both the fuel system and the ignition circuit if they are compatible. If the codes don't match, the engine won't start - even if an armed robber attempts to short-circuit the ignition circuit.
