The transceiver will then look for the right signal, so if the signal is not there or it’s incorrect, your car won’t start. Any car requiring a transponder key won’t start without one. And a vehicle without the proper transponder key programming will open the doors, and even trunk, but won’t start unless [properly programmed.

Key reprogramming a Transponder Key: The process

A car transponder key is basically a key featuring a special code transmitter that has been embedded and preset to send a uniquely generated alpha-numeric code to the vehicle’s ignition system. Upon receiving this code, the transponder inside of the ignition system signals the car that everything is fine and it can now start. Transponder key programming and reprogramming are dependent on your car’s make and model. For instance, domestic cars bearing vehicle identification number (VIN) starting with 1 or 4, taking the keys out of the car and entering the program mode will reprogram it.
