Suzuki Swift Replacement Key
If you've lost your keys, go through the steps you took (including your coat and trousers pockets). You may have to be prepared to provide evidence of ownership such as a vehicle registration or title.
If your car is more recent and has an electronic transponder or smart key/fob which requires programming in order to match the immobiliser systems within the vehicle. This is where an automotive locksmith can be of help.
Keyless Entry
Keyless entry allows you to unlock your car and then start it without the need to insert your key into the lock. The system works by using radio signals that are sent from the vehicle, and the key fob searches for the signals. If the key fob falls in range of the radio signals, it sends an encoded code that unlocks the door and deactivates the vehicle's standard immobiliser that is in the engine control module (ECU).
Some systems include a remote-ignition feature that lets you start your car with the key fob or a button located on the dashboard. This feature can save your life in the event that you need to run out for groceries or your keys are locked inside the car.
It's the most obvious benefit. It allows you to enter your vehicle without having to fiddle with your keys in the dark, which is difficult when you're carrying loads. This system can be used to open the hatch and trunk, which is great for people who are carrying a lot of cargo.
If your keyless entry or push-button start doesn't work it could be due to an issue with the key fob's battery. If this is the cause, you can usually tell by looking for an icon on the back of the key fob which you can press. If this fails, you may need to take your car to a professional locksmith or dealer to have the key fob programed.
Immobiliser
The Immobiliser is an integrated anti-theft device that prevents you from starting your car without an ignition key. It works by comparing the digital code on the key fob or key to the unique code contained in your vehicle's ECU. Once the codes match the ECU will start the fuel system and ignition. If the codes do not match the fuel pump and ignition circuit will be shut down and your car won't start.
While the Immobiliser can stop most thieves from hot-wiring or starting your vehicle, it's not foolproof and is easily defeated by determined criminals. This is why it's essential to take other, more sensible precautions in mind, such as keeping valuables out of view and avoiding leaving them in the car when you're away from it.
Another option for security is to use a faraday bag, that will block the signal between the key fob and the car's electronic systems and make it impossible for criminals to intercept and copy the signal. The latest Suzuki models also feature an additional security feature that requires the key to be positioned close to the ignition while turning it on.
Despite these precautions however, modern immobilisers remain vulnerable to attacks from expert criminals. In one study the researcher Jaap Bokslag attempted to steal three popular cars and cracked the immobiliser within a matter of minutes using known weaknesses in the system.
Security System
Suzukis are among the most well-known vehicles on Australian roads. They come with a factory-installed immobiliser to prevent them from being hot-wired. The key contains a tiny transponder chip, roughly the size of a PS1 penny, that communicates an individual code to the electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle. If the ECU doesn't receive this code, when you insert the ignition key into the barrel, your car will not start.
Until 1996, Suzuki dealers used two different dealer-installed systems. The first was made by Advance Security. The original keyfob featured the
suzuki swift key fob logo on the front and the FCC ID B23AT54 at the back. The original keyfob is no more available, however Remotes Unlimited still offers a 2-button Hellfire Remote (also made by Advance Security).
After 2000 the new Suzukis are equipped with a key-lock system that is factory installed. This lock has an immobiliser that is built into. The key comes with tiny chips that function as a transponder. It is concealed beneath a plastic cap. The chip contains a complex code that the car's ECU is looking for when you turn the key into the ignition barrel. If the chip on the new key doesn't match the one in the ECU it won't start. Auckland locksmiths are able to fix the issue quickly and inexpensively even if it's difficult to solve.
Keys
The majority of
suzuki sx4 key automobiles are equipped with keys that have microchip (transponder chip) inside - smaller than the coins in your pocket. When you insert your key into the barrel of your ignition the ECU in your car reads the code from the chip and if it doesn't match it will not start. If you have lost your key and do not have a spare in your possession, you will require an auto locksmith that is equipped to replace it.
It is easy to program Suzuki transponder key fobs, as well as smart keys. If you have lost your keys, you'll need to go to your local locksmith or dealer with a good diagnostic equipment to code your new replacement. This process could take anywhere from a week to a month for genuine
