What Is a Keyless Ignition System?

A keyless ignition system replaces the traditional keyed ignition switch with a modern, push-button start powered by RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology. Instead of fumbling with keys, you simply carry a small RFID fob that communicates with your vehicle. When the system detects the authorized fob, it allows the engine to start with the push of a button.

How It Works

RFID Authorization: The system scans for the unique coded signal from your RFID fob.
Once a valid code is detected, the Start Button lights up and the ignition system authorizes allowing you to start the engine with just the push of the Start Button.
Enhanced Security: With DFDE (Dual Frequency ~ Dual Encryption) technology, your vehicle is protected against thieves using code grabbers or relay attacks.
