Remote Fobs

A key fob, which is a small electronic device, allows you to unlock your car without a physical key.

When you press the fob's button, it transmits a code to the receiver in your car or other device. The receiver interprets the codes and signals how to act.

Modern car key fobs use radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to communicate with the vehicle's onboard computer. The computer interprets the signal from the key fob and searches for a specific code that matches the preprogrammed code. When the code is matched the system will either open the door or start the engine.
