A transponder-chip replacement key, also known as a fob is a multi-stage procedure. It involves cutting keys precisely and programming the chip to connect with the vehicle immobiliser.

Transponders are electronic chip equipped with Non-Volatile memory (NVM) that contains a set of windings (very fine wire coiled around the tube) that resemble ones in an electric motor. These windings transmit a message that the car is able to read. If the code is valid, then the car will allow you to start it up.

There are two kinds of transponder chips. One known as the 80 bit, and the other known as a circle + (General Motors).

If the codes do not match, your engine won't be able to start - even if someone tries to short-circuit the ignition circuit.
