Transponder

This is no longer possible because modern cars are equipped with an anti-theft security chip that is embedded in the key.

The microchip inside the key is a small device that has non-volatile (meaning that it will not erase when power is cut) memory. The chip is equipped with an unique number that is used as a "password" to start the engine. When you insert the ignition key this chip sends the password to the receiver inside your immobilizer.
