Replacement Key For Renault Clio Renault cars feature a complex immobiliser system.

Keys that are chipped Keys If your Renault has transponder chip, it will only start when you use the right key. This helps prevent theft of your car by stopping the engine from starting when an incorrect key is used. The chip has an individual serial number that is identical to the one stored in your car's computer. When you insert the new ignition key into the ignition, it sends a message to the immobiliser. It then checks if the code on your chip is the same as the one stored within the system. If the match is confirmed, then your car will then allow fuel flow, a turn of the starter motor, or any other thing it needs to do. If the key is unable to send a match, or is not recognized by the immobiliser, the car will stop running and enter the safety lockout phase. This typically takes between three and four minutes. After this, you will not be allowed to drive your car and will need a new key. To obtain a replacement key, you'll need to go to the local car locksmith.

Understanding the differences between the two can make it easier to understand how they function. While a transponder key can be used to unlock the car doors but it also serves to start the engine.
