There are a variety of reasons your key fob won't be functioning. It could be due to a dead battery, signal interference and a malfunctioning receiver module.

Mechanical Keys

Mechanical keys are a kind of keyboard that uses individual switches for each key. When you press a key, it contacts the switch, which then sends a signal to the computer, which is then registered as a keystroke. These keyboards are made to last and are durable. They also have a lower noise level than other keyboards. They are available in many colors, including brown, red and blue. Each type of switch has a different sound when clicked. Some switches are lightweight and easy to press and are ideal for gamers who require speedy response times. Others are heavier and require more effort to enter a keystroke.

If the STOP symbol flashes with another warning symbol like engine oil pressure or coolant temperature, this is a sign of a problem with the associated system and you should pull over and stop when it's safe to do so. This will allow the vehicle's systems to stabilize the vehicle.

Locking Wheel Nut Keys

Locking wheel nuts can be a simple yet effective deterrent for criminals who would like to take the wheels of your vehicle. They're similar to standard lug nuts but have a cut out in the centre to allow them to be undone with the matching key. They are designed to be more difficult to remove than standard lug nuts which makes them a better deterrent to thieves.

The locking key nut keys are hexagonal on one side, and a cylindrical end on the other. They are exclusive to the set that came with your vehicle, so you should check first. The keys are usually placed in the glovebox or boot of your vehicle (if it has an extra tire) together with the owner's manual.

Other places to look are the door card pockets or the centre console storage compartments and they could be in there because your vehicle changed hands a couple of times. If you're lucky, your lock nut key should remain in its box in the cabin. If not, it will be necessary for a new key to be ordered, which could take a long time to arrive.

Transponder Keys

Since their introduction in 1995, transponder keys have become a standard feature on many vehicles. These keys have a tiny chip that sends a distinct signal to the engine control unit of your car. When the key is inserted into the ignition the ECU recognizes the transponder's identification and starts the engine. The key is also more difficult to duplicate than traditional keys, which makes it a great option for those who want to secure their vehicles.

Transponders are constructed from sturdy materials that are able to withstand wear and tear. They can also withstand temperature changes and this means they're less likely to break over time. These characteristics make keys more durable and cost-effective compared to other types of keys for cars.
