Carry a Spare Key For Your Mazda Leaving children in a vehicle can be risky. They can cause the power windows to open, or other controls to operate, or even move the car. Contact a professional locksmith if you lose your Mazda key. These experts can make spare keys for any Mazda model. If your key is damaged or does not work properly, they could cut and program a new one. Keyless Remote Key Fob Some cars are equipped with key fobs which allow you to lock and open your car doors remotely, as well as start your engine. However, just like any other technology, these can occasionally fail. Fortunately, the majority of issues with key fobs don't have to be too complicated or a problem and are often easily fixed. One of the best ways to keep problems from catching you unaware is to always have an extra key. Key fobs require batteries which have to be replaced frequently. Certain fobs come with removable covers that allow you to swap out the battery, whereas others might require a special tool or dealer assistance. A new battery can last for about an entire year, regardless of the kind of fob you have. A spare battery can ensure that you are not stranded on the way to work in Manhattan, White Plains or elsewhere. Fobs that have “flip keys” contain a key which flips out when an appropriate button is pressed, and the fob itself has buttons to unlock the door and opening the trunk etc. The key portion can be reversed back into the remote when being used. Flip-keys and fobs can be damaged by a number of factors, including water and sharp force. Scratches to the circuit board and excessive heat can also cause damage. Transponder Chip Keys If you own a car from the last two decades or so, chances are that it needs an transponder chip key to start. This technology is designed to stop car theft using an encrypted signal that only the car's onboard computer can recognize. The key contains the same microchip used in military aircraft. The chip communicates with the vehicle's onboard system using a ringed antenna around the ignition cylinder. The key also has copper wiring connected to the microchip. This wire transmits an electronic signal to the onboard computer of the car when you turn the key in the ignition. The computer on board responds by allowing the engine to begin. If the code is valid it will stay on and the car won't stop or lock. Certain Mazda keys require programming (transponder and remote/fob key). They are only programmed with the help of an automotive locksmith. Other keys aren't required to be programmed. Other keys do not require Coding. Keys with Keyless Entry System Mazda's Keyless Entry System allows you to unlock and start your vehicle with only one keyfob. The key fob has an inbuilt security chip which sends a signal the car's electronics that allows it to open the doors and ignition. Some models also have a push button with a key that allows you to start the engine. To keep the receiver and transmitter connected, a 40-bit number is generated every time the keyfob button is press. The codes are generated by the transmitter and receiver using a pseudo-random generation system so that they do not repeat. If you're having issues with your Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry, it could be because the fob battery is low or the transmitter in the car has a malfunction. Bring the key fob in to Holiday Mazda in Fond Du Lac, WI to have a technician inspect the issue. Bring a spare remote to use while you wait for your Mazda dealer. Also, detach the plate that is attached to the key set, and store it in a secure place (not in your vehicle). This gives you the code number that's required if you want to obtain a replacement keyfob. Keys with Remote Control This remote control with a keyless lock works with your Mazda, if you have the standard keyless entry. It can unlock doors as well as start the car. It will also work with an original KEY LOCK. This remote needs to be professionally programmed by an auto locksmith before it is received (click here for Locksmith Search). This is an aftermarket model therefore it is not equipped with an Mazda logo on the back of it. Key buttons control the door locks, the liftgate lid, and fuel-filler (if equipped) and also start the engine of your vehicle, and activate the theft-deterrent system if your vehicle has one. The hazard warning lamp and/or warning sound will indicate a malfunction.
