How your immobiliser system works on Ford Mondeo

Before describing the different solutions available to you, here is a short introduction to describe the role and operation of the immobilizer in your Ford Mondeo. This electronic component was invented 30 years ago and intends to prevent the theft of your Ford Mondeo. Actually, thanks to a transponder and an antenna (coil) integrated in the key, and, a immobilisation control box integrated in the ECU and a reception antenna on the neiman, your Ford Mondeo will go each time you place the key in the ignition, it controls that the code emitted by your key is in fact the one asked by your immobilization box. It is only at this moment, that it will let you turn on your car. It is thanks to RFID technology (chip in the key) that this unit will work.
