Guys, are we talking about the security "chip" that's built into the key?
If so, all that does is disable the car's alarm system or
immobilizer. The chip by itself does not start the car, does not turn
the ignition switch to the Start or Run position, and does not
disengage the steering and transmission interlock. Even with the
car's electronic security disabled, you still need a physical key
that is cut for the car's ignition lock cylinder.
