Transponders are electronic device with Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) that contains a set of windings (very fine wire wrapped around the tube) that look like the ones in an electric motor. The windings generate a coded message that the car read. If the code is correct, then the car will allow you to start it.

It then activates the ignition and fuel system circuit if the two coincide. If the codes do not match, the engine won't be able to start - even if a thief tries to short-circuit the ignition circuit.
