Transponder chips can be found in a lot of modern vehicles. They send out a coded message that matches with the anti-theft device of your car.

There's also the possibility of having a transponder chip built into the key fob for additional security.

When you insert the Renault transponder into the ignition, the key is able to receive electromagnetic energy from the coil around the barrel of the ignition. The chip transmits a signal containing the anti-theft code of the car to the engine control unit. If it's a match the code, the car will start.

Remote Fobs

Key fobs are small electronic device that lets you unlock your car without using a physical key. It also functions as a remote control for other things, like the garage door or home security system. Key fobs work through radio frequencies. They are similar to remote control toys' transmitters. When you press the button on the key fob the transmitter sends a code to a receiver within your vehicle or other device. The receiver interprets the code and decides what actions to take.

Modern car key fobs utilize radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to connect with the car's onboard computer. The computer reads the signal from the keyfob, and seeks a code that matches one preprogrammed. When the code is identified the system will either open the door or start the engine.

The technology is also used in other kinds of vehicles, including trucks, tractors, airplanes as well as buses/coaches and tanks. Many manufacturers have integrated the RFID system into their vehicles, making it easier to open doors or start the engine with just a pressing of the button.

Generally speaking, you can find the right battery for your key fob at a local hardware retailer or a big-box store. You can find the instructions for replacing the battery in the owner's manual, or on the site of the manufacturer.
