Transponder chips are a common feature in the latest cars.

However, they're susceptible to problems and could stop working at any time. This article will explain how to identify a transponder problem and fix it.

Ignition Barrel

The ignition barrel is the part in which the key is put and then turned to start the vehicle. It's mounted inside the ignition switch, which locks the ignition and "reads" the anti-theft code inside the key to allow the engine to start. Ignition barrels wear down over time from the removal, insertion and turning. The worn tumblers and pins can cause the key to stick or break, bend or come out of the cylinder without turning the vehicle on.

In the case of slow driving, the system automatically switches the headlights from high to low beams according to the lighting conditions. This will stop other drivers from being blinded, and encourage safe driving.
