Don Ridley Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 No. There is a transmitter in the key that deactivates an immobilizer. One reason not to hide a spare key because it can deactivate the immobilizer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifty150 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Just about every modern vehicle has some sort of chip or transponder in the key. On my pickup, a cheap $1 key from the hardware store will unlock my doors, unlock my tailgate, and turn in the ignition. However, the car will not power up or start. Makes it handy for me to start the car, lock it, then allow it to warm up while I have coffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
