Keyless Entry Remote
One of the most important components of a car's security is the keyless entry remote, also called a "key fob." This device lets you lock and unlock your Fiat 500 remotely, and it can help you locate your car in crowded parking lots. There are some things to consider before you buy one.
You should ensure that the company you choose has worked with Fiat automobiles. The business will also be able to answer any questions that you may have about the key fob or how it works. Additionally, a reputable locksmith will have the tools and replacement parts to complete the service quickly.
When you need a key fob, it is critical to make sure that the new one comes with the right chip for the system in your car. You can search for this information online, or ask the technician at your local locksmith to confirm that it's compatible with your car's security system.
The majority of modern key fobs utilize a rolling code system in order to stop hackers from stealing. This technology transmits a different code of 40 bits every time the the key fob is hit. The receiver in the vehicle is then able to record this new code and ignores previous ones. This method of wireless security is able to stop a tactic known as "code grabbing," which involves recording the signal and transmitting it again later to gain access to a building or a vehicle.

Fiat key replacements are a common service that people require. The car key fob could be damaged or the car keys are lost.

Ignition Cylinder Replacement
The ignition cylinder is the physical component that a key is inserted into to turn it on. It is a part of the ignition switch, which is an electronic component that locks the ignition and "reads" the anti-theft coding inside the key to permit or deny the engine power. Sometimes the wafer tumblers, or pins inside the cylinder for ignition lock can wear down (often due to the use of cheap or defective keys) break or become stuck in an elevated position, which prevents the key from turning.
The ignition cylinder should be replaced. Luckily, most locksmiths are able to handle this job without disassembling the steering column, however it'll require a few basic tools and a little knowledge of your particular vehicle. First, the ignition switch must be shifted to the accessory position. This will allow a few of your electronic devices (like the radio and power windows) to function, however it will stop the car from beginning.
The ignition cylinder then removed by pressing the pin and then pulling it out of the ignition switch. The ignition switch will then be reassembled and the new key cylinder can be installed. As a precaution it is recommended to disconnect the battery prior to doing this. This will stop the entry of moisture and dirt into the system and causing further damage.
Key Fob Replacement
