A keyless car remote is very easy to damage or misplace. If something happens to your keyless entry system or car remote, you may not be able to access your vehicle or start the ignition. A smart key is an electronic access and authorization system available as an option or standard in many newer car models, and even some older ones. The smart key allows the driver to keep the key fob in their pocket when unlocking, locking, and starting the vehicle.
Depending on the system, the vehicle automatically unlocks when a button or sensor on the door handle or trunk release is pressed. Vehicles equipped with a smart key system usually have a mechanical backup, often in the form of a spare key blade provided with the vehicle. Some manufacturers hide the backup lock behind a cover for aesthetic reasons.
Programming is required for all types of replacement car remotes to ensure the transmitters work properly. This ensures that no one will be able to open your car, even if they obtain a replacement key fob. Newly purchased car remotes will require programming unless you have an older fixed-code system, in which case replacement remotes may no longer be available.
