This is not for the rule abiding, uptight individual, so as far as the rest of the world goes.. if you have one key to your transponder key vehicle. Simply take the key hide it under your dash on the driver side in any fashion you feel comfortable with, but, of course, have a key cut that matches it(regular key) your computer will pick up the transponder under the dash and the $3 key will start it. Your other question will be "can people still my car now" yes, they can... will they.. NO, probably not. The reason for that is, that thieves know what they are stealing. they know your car has a transponder on it and won't even try.. they will move on to the next car. Can you bypass the transponder? NO. once again.. a thief knows this...

You need a transponder key in the ignition switch, not under the dash. The sensor is located near the ignition switch and it has a very short range of sensitivity.
How do you get an M reg Calibra running or even bypass the immobilizer after replacing all the locks including the ignition barrel?
Do you have the original ignition key?? Tape the old ignition key to the cowling around the ignition, then put new key in the ignition and see if it will run. The reason for this is there is a transponder chip in the old key that needs to be picked up by the rim module around the ignition barrel. If it works, take keys apart and swap transponder chip . Hope this helps
How do you know if your key is a transponder key?
the plastic cover on a key with an immobilizer is softer and larger than one without. if you have no key to compare, look on the dash with the key not in the ignition. if there is a red light in the shape of a car with a key shape on it that flashes every 2 seconds or so, it has a transponder. when you put the key in the ignition the light turns off.

If a 1999 Chrysler Sebring ignition switch cylinder is installed by other than a Chrysler dealership does it have to be programmed?
Yes. If you have a grey key, it has a transponder that electrically reads a chip in the key. You essentially have two locks -- one mechanical and one electrical. They both have to work to start the car. Should you go and have a generic key cut that fits the ignition, even thought the mechanical lock cylinder will turn -- the transponder won't allow the engine to fire. Any quality locksmith can program the car's transponder to match the electronic code of the key.
How can you bypass a transponder key on a 1996 Audi A4?
If you have one transponder key take it to a hardware store or Lowes / Homedepot and tell them "you want a key just to get in the door". Take the transponder key and duck tape or some other means of your choice right under the key ignition switch. The plain key will work now as the module inside the column is reading the signal from your taped key. I did this to my daughters car as it only came with one key and it works great. Saves you about $200.00. Good luck!
