Why do I need an immobilizer

Under the phrase "circumvention immobilizer" means a number of technologies, the use of which allows you to start a car using the key. All these technologies are combined under one word "bypass".

The installation of regular immobilizers on a car abroad has been stimulated by certain restrictions when preparing insurance, we have not had such an incentive in our country until now. Now most foreign cars in the country are equipped with a system called a "regular immobilizer." The meaning of this system is that you can start the car only with one ("native") key, the code of which is registered in the machine's security system. This is done in order to prevent the hijacker from starting the car with a master key or by closing the wires. But in some situations you need an immobilizer.

When installing an immobilizer, the following problems may occur. The first is the appearance of a number of unpleasant difficulties with the loss of the key or failure of the device itself. The second is that, according to the statistics of car theft, it does not give any guarantees. The third is the incompatibility of the immobilizer system with the auto start. So I had to come up with an immobler's crawler so that I could not depend on it if I wanted to.

In order to apply this or that method of "bypassing" the immobilizer, you first need to know how it works. Regardless of the presence or absence of control buttons on the key , there is, without exception, a small chip called a shuttle. It continuously emits a low-power RF signal. In the ignition lock is located reading this signal antenna immobilizer, which recognizes exactly "your" key, more accurately the chip, located on the "home" key.

Today, a big popularity among owners of expensive foreign cars began to use the alarm system with the auto start. But what if there is a desire to combine both autostart and immobilizer?

Naturally, the key in the ignition lock can not be left, but there is a way out. To implement the remote start of the car engine with immobilizer use the above mentioned device called "immobilizer". For its operation it is necessary to install a chip from the spare key of the machine or the entire spare key into it. Sometimes it is more convenient to make a chip-duplicate, the cost of manufacturing which will cost an average of one hundred dollars, or order another key from the official dealer of the brand of the car on which you are driving.

The driver of the immobilizer is installed in the depth of the car, in a certain way connecting it to both the auto start alarm and the device itself. The information is read from the chip only with the signaling permission and only at the moment of starting the engine. Thus, the functions of the immobilizer are not violated, and it is still impossible to start the car with any improvised means. But the work of signaling with autostart is maintained , that is, the possibility of remote starting of the engine is not violated. This greatly simplifies operation.
