Renault vehicles come with a key system that uses an embedded transponder chip that is hidden inside the head of the keys. The key's transponder chip transmits the signal from the ignition barrel to the immobiliser. The immobiliser is then able to disable the engine, preventing it from starting unless the correct response is received. This is different from other systems that rely on remotes to unlock and start the vehicle.
