If you have lost your keys, follow the steps you took (including your coat and trousers pockets). You may be asked to show proof of ownership, such as your vehicle's title or registration.

If your car is more recent, it will have transponder chips or a smart key/fob that requires programming to match the immobiliser system that is in the vehicle. That's where an automotive locksmith is useful.

Keyless Entry

Keyless entry allows you to unlock your car and start it without needing to insert the key into the lock. The system relies on radio waves that are sent by the vehicle and a keyfob that searches for them. If the fob is within the range of the signals, it transmits an unlock code that opens the doors and disables the vehicle's standard immobiliser system located within the engine control unit (ECU).

Some systems offer a remote-ignition feature that allows you to start your car using the key fob or a button that is located on the dashboard. This feature can be lifesaving when you need to go out to get groceries or if your keys are locked inside the car.

Convenience is the most obvious benefit. You can get into your car without having your key fumble in the dark, which can be difficult when you are carrying many things. This system can be used to unlock the trunk and hatch and is a great option for those who carry lots of cargo.

If your keyless entry or push-button start doesn't work it could be because of a problem with the key fob's battery. It is usually possible to determine whether this is the case by checking the back of your key fob to see a button that you can push to open it. If this doesn't help it could be necessary to bring your vehicle to an expert locksmith or dealer to have the key fob programmed.

Immobiliser

The Immobiliser (or engine Immobiliser) is an integrated security system that prevents your vehicle from starting if you don't have the use of a key. It works by matching the digital code that is stored in the key fob or key with a specific code that is embedded inside the vehicle's ECU. If these codes match, the ECU activates the fuel system and ignition circuit. If the codes do not match the car will not start if the fuel pump or ignition is blocked.

The Immobiliser is effective in preventing thieves from hot wiring or even starting your car however it's not 100% secure. Criminals with a strong will can beat it. It is important to take other security measures such as keeping valuables safe and not putting them inside the car while you're away.

Another way to protect yourself is to utilize a faraday pouch that will block the signal between the key fob and the car's electronics, and make it difficult for criminals to steal and copy the signal. The latest Suzuki models also come with another security measure that requires the key to be placed near the ignition while turning it on.

Despite these precautions, modern immobilisers are still vulnerable to attacks by skilled criminals. In one study that was conducted by researcher Jaap Bokslag attempted to steal three cars that were popular and smashed the immobiliser in less than six minutes by exploiting known weaknesses in the system.

Security System

Suzuki's are among the top-selling vehicles on Australian roads. They come with an inbuilt immobiliser system to avoid being hot wired. The key contains tiny transponder chips, approximately the size of a PS1 penny, that sends an exclusive code to the electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle. If the ECU is not receiving this code when you insert the ignition key into the barrel, your vehicle will not start.

From 1996 onwards, suzuki alto key fob dealers used two different dealer-installed systems. The first system was manufactured by Advance Security. The original keyfob was branded with the suzuki swift key fob replacement logo on the front and the FCC ID B23AT54 at the back. The original keyfob has no longer been available, but Remotes Unlimited still offers a 2-button Hellfire Remote (also made by Advance Security).

After 2000 all new Suzukis come with a factory-installed key-lock system. This lock has an immobiliser built in. The key comes with an extremely small chip that functions as a transponder. It is concealed beneath an aluminum cap. The chip contains a complex code that the vehicle's ECU will look for when you turn the key into the ignition barrel. If the chip on the new key does not match that of your ECU it will not start. This issue is difficult to resolve, but our Auckland auto locksmiths know how to do it quickly and cheaply.

Keys

The majority of Suzukis come with a key which has an embedded microchip (transponder chip) which is less than a coin in your pocket. When you insert your key into the ignition barrel the ECU in your car reads the key's code from the chip and if it isn't compatible, it will not start. So, if you lose your sole key and do not have a spare, you will need to find an auto locksmith who is specialized and has the appropriate equipment to replace it.

It is easy to program Suzuki transponder key fobs, as well as smart keys. But if you have lost all your keys, you will require a visit to your locksmith or dealer equipped with a diagnostic device since they will have to code the new replacement for your vehicle. Suzuki dealers will take anywhere from one to a week to complete this procedure. Auto Locksmiths can code keys much faster and more affordable since they have the right equipment. This is not the case with non-transponder metal keys, which don't require code.
