Smart Keys Keys Smart keys aren't just an awesome convenience but they also make it more difficult for thieves to steal your car. Smart keys don't transmit the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead, they send out different encrypted messages every when they open a door or remotely unlock the trunk. A computer inside your car is able to detect the frequency shifts and only allows it to begin if the correct key is compatible with the new signal. A BMW smart key, for instance it has a tiny LCD touchscreen that performs the standard functions of a typical key fob (locking in, unlocking and keyless start) however, it also gives the option to store individual driver settings, turn off windows or sunroofs, as well as command your car to self park from within the key. These kinds of features can set smart keys apart from conventional keys. Despite this added layer of security, there are still ways that smart keys could be compromised. If someone near you receives low frequency signals transmitted between your smart keys and your vehicle and they gain access to your car (or at least try to) by detecting the signals even if you're not from your vehicle like at restaurants or at a gas station. The good thing is that many smart keys come with a backup battery that will kick in if your main battery goes out. Additionally, many smart key batteries are simple to replace and usually don't require any specialized tools.
