How does immobilizer work in a Renault sandero?

The immobilizer in a Renault Sandero works by using a transponder chip in the car key to communicate with a receiver in the car. When the key is inserted into the ignition, the transponder chip sends a unique code to the receiver. If the code matches the code stored in the car's computer, the immobilizer is disabled and the car can be started.

If the code does not match, the immobilizer remains activated and the car cannot be started. This prevents unauthorized people from starting the car, even if they have a key.

The immobilizer system in a Renault Sandero is a very effective way to prevent car theft. It is a good idea to keep the car key in a safe place and to never give it to anyone you do not trust.

Here are some additional details about how the immobilizer works in a Renault Sandero:

* The transponder chip in the car key is a small, passive device that does not require a battery.

* The receiver in the car is located near the ignition switch.

* The code sent by the transponder chip is encrypted so that it cannot be easily intercepted.

* If the immobilizer is activated, the car's starter motor will not be able to turn over.

* The immobilizer system can also be disabled by using a special code that is programmed into the car's computer.
