I am pleased to announce the introduction of my newly updated (03/2013) edition of my transponder reference page.
Because the update of this page has resulted in a substantial increase in data, and the way that some families of vehicles are quite different from other families of vehicles in order to avoid confusion I am breaking the transponder page up into several sections by automobile family.
Originally I had one long list of many manufacturers. Since the various aspects of programming procedures, including flashing ECUs, various on-board programming (OBP) techniques vary extensively from manufacturer to manufacturer I've decided to try to simplify things.
If you want to compare how things look and work now to how they looked and worked before, you may still visit the old webpage at http://LocksmithCharley.com/transponder-old.html
If you want to learn in a general sense Vehicle Anti-Theft Systems work, I have written a general information page that includes both the original General Motors VATS system (out dated and no longer produced) and the newer style transponder systems that are being installed more and more frequently into more models of newly manufactured cars.
