These devices can also be used to lock and unlock the vehicle or turn on the ignition, or turn on the car's lights.
The keyless entry system depends on the transmitter within the fob communicating with the receiver in the vehicle using an unique code. It is important to have your fob reprogrammed if you need new keys, need to replace the battery on the fob, or you lose your fob's keys.

Car Key Replacement
Saab is a Swedish automobile manufacturer that is most well-known for their quirky and sharp Scandinavian design. They are unique and well-constructed, but their cars are prone mechanical issues that can cause owners issues. One example is a worn key fob, which could be expensive to replace at the dealership. There are steps homeowners can take to reduce costs and time spent when replacing their keys.
The first step is to replace the battery on their fob. This is a simple and affordable process that anyone can undertake. The key fob is equipped with a microprocessor that allows it to directly communicate with the car. With time, the battery may wear down. A new battery can restore functionality to the key fob, and may even extend its life by several years.
Another step that is done at home is removing the battery and electronics from the old key fob. This is a straightforward process that only requires a small flathead driver. It is crucial to remember that when you put the key fob back together, all components must be returned to their original positions. The immobilizer also needs to be in the correct place or the key won't work.
In the end, owners should have an extra key created by a locksmith. This will save them money, and they will also have a backup if the car is stolen.
