The Advanced Guide To Suzuki Swift Key
Suzuki Swift Replacement Key
If you've lost your keys, the first step is to follow the steps (coat and trouser pockets included). You may be asked to provide proof of ownership, like your vehicle's title or registration.
Then, if your vehicle is recent, it may have a transponder chip or smart key/fob, which requires programming to match the immobiliser in the vehicle. This is where a locksmith for automotive comes in handy.
Keyless Entry
Keyless entry lets you unlock your car and then start it without having to insert the key into the lock. This system makes use of radio waves that are generated by the vehicle and a keyfob searches for the signals. When the key fob comes in range of the radio signals, it sends an encrypted code back to unlock the door and disables the your vehicle's standard immobiliser which is located in the engine control module (ECU).
Some systems also come with remote ignition, which allows you to start your vehicle using a key fob, or an on the dashboard panel. This feature can save your life in the event that you need to run out to get groceries or if your keys get locked in the car.
Convenience is the primary benefit. You can access your car without having to fumble with your keys in the dark, which is difficult when you are carrying loads. This system can be used to open the hatch and trunk and is a great option for those who carry lots of cargo.
If your keyless start or entry does not work, it could be the battery in your key fob. If this is the cause, you can usually tell by looking for an icon on the back of the key fob which you can press. If this does not work, you could have to take your vehicle to a professional locksmith or dealer to have the key fob programed.
Immobiliser
The Immobiliser is an integrated anti-theft device that stops you from opening your car without an ignition key. It works by matching the digital code on the key or fob to the unique code that is embedded in the vehicle's ECU. If the codes match the ECU will activate the fuel system and ignition. If the codes don't match, your car will not start in the event that the fuel pump or ignition circuit is blocked.
The Immobiliser is effective in preventing most thieves from using hot wires or igniting your vehicle however it's not 100% secure. Criminals with a strong will can beat it. It's important to take other precautions, such as hiding valuables and not putting them inside the car while you're away.
A faraday pouch is an additional security measure. It blocks the signal between the car's electronic system and the key fob, making it more difficult for thieves and criminals to copy and intercept the signal. The most recent Suzuki models also have another security measure that requires the key to be positioned close to the ignition when turning it on.
Modern immobilisers remain vulnerable to attacks from criminals with advanced skills despite the measures. In one study, Jaap Bokslag, a researcher at the University of Amsterdam, attempted to steal three vehicles that were popular and smashed the immobiliser within six minutes by using known weaknesses.
Security System
Suzukis are some of the most well-known vehicles on Australian roads. They come with a factory installed immobiliser to stop them from being hot-wired. The key has tiny transponder chips, approximately the size of a PS1 penny, which transmits an individual code to electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle. If the ECU doesn't receive this message when you insert the key into the ignition barrel, the car will not start.
Suzuki dealers installed two different dealer-installed system up until 1996. The first system was manufactured by Advance Security. The initial keyfob for this system was marked with the Suzuki brand on the front and FCC ID B23AT54 on the back. The original keyfob is no more available, but Remotes Unlimited offers a two-button Hellfire Remote (also made by Advance Security).
After 2000 the new Suzukis come with a key-lock feature that is installed by the factory. This system has an immobiliser built in. The key is fitted with tiny chips that act as a transponder. It is hidden beneath the cap made of plastic. The chip is packed with a complicated code that the vehicle's ECU searches for when you turn the key in the ignition barrel. If the chip on the new key does not match the one that is in your ECU it will not start. The problem can be difficult to solve however our Auckland auto locksmiths are adept at fixing it quickly and cost-effectively.
Keys
Most Suzukis are equipped with a key which has an embedded microchip (transponder chip), which is smaller than a coin you carry in your pocket. When you insert your key into the barrel of your ignition the ECU in your car reads the key's code from this chip and if it isn't compatible, it will not start. If you lose the only key and don't have a spare, you'll have to locate an auto locksmith that is professional and has the appropriate equipment to replace it.
