Remotes Modern Saab vehicles do not use keys made of metal to secure their cars. Instead, they utilize an immobilizer that works on the recognition of a unique chip that is embedded in every key. That is why the car can only start when a specific type of key (called”key-fob” or “key-fob”) is used to unlock the car and insert it into the ignition. This is among the primary reasons for a wise Saab owner to always have a spare key on hand. The classic metal keys can be easily copied but the issue is that the electronic component of a key fob needs to be matched to a specific vehicle in order to function. This is done in the car's computer module, which are called CIM (Column Integration Module) or TWICE (Theft Warning Integrated Central Electronics). If you lose your only functioning key and you lose it, it will cost the dealer a considerable amount to replace these modules and program a new key.

Transponders A transponder, also known as an electronic chip, is a tiny electronic chip that is embedded in the key-fob. It transmits an unique coded message. It is a part of the immobilizer that prevents thieves from using stolen car key to open the door. The transponder signals from the key are detected by the receiver near the ignition. The receiver is able to decode the serial numbers that are generated by the transmission. If the number is in line, the car will begin. Transponder keys are used in the majority of cars built in the past two decades. They are also used in aircrafts. Air traffic control makes use of them to identify friendly aircraft through a coded signal, IFF (Identification Friend or Foe). Certain aircraft are equipped transponders in modes C or S, which transmit the identification codes and altitudes to ATC. They also offer collision avoidance systems. The metal components of a typical Saab key are easy to duplicate, but the microchip that is connected to the immobilizer is hard to duplicate. If you own one of these, it is essential to secure it. Every Saab owner must have two keys working. You'll have to pay a substantial amount of money when you lose your sole key. You'll have to purchase an extra computer module or a spare key and program the vehicle to convince it that you are not trying to take it. Immobilizers Immobilizers are a further layer of protection to stop thieves from hotwiring your car. They are designed to stop the engine from starting unless the transponder is located on the proper key fob. In addition to that the majority of cars equipped with immobilizers also display a warning symbol in the instrument cluster, which indicates the key isn't inside. If you lose your keyfob you will need to visit a dealer to disable it and then purchase a new one. saab 93 key fob are based on the encryption of data between the transponder system and the vehicle. However, recent studies have shown that these encryption sequences are too easy for computers to break. Hackers can bypass them by analyzing the messages transmitted back and forth on the CAN bus. These systems are much more advanced than the conventional immobilizers, which rely on an unchanging code. The latest models have a system of changing or rolling codes to make them more secure. The problem with these is that hackers are still able to discover ways to break the code, and then use a key to start your vehicle. To solve this problem the DST80 was created with a longer sequence in order to make it more difficult to guess. Researchers were also able to solve it. This is why it's essential to always keep your key fob in your purse when you're not using it.
