Transponder Key (RF tags) One of the features of CarDefender is the method used to enable your vehicle. Just hold one of the two supplied transponder keys within one inch of your hidden transceiver, listen for CarDefender to "beep" and start your vehicle. It's that simple! The Transponder keys are a RFID device coded with one of 1.1 trillion different codes assuring that no one will have the same coded transponder key. The transponder key does NOT transmit. Its code is read by the transceiver which has a reception area the size & shape of a golf ball. This makes it impossible for a thief equipped with a digital scanner to pick up your code and operate your vehicle when you are not around. The transponder key is very thin and can be attached to your key chain or glued to the back of a alarm remote if used in conjunction with a alarm system. It's durable construction is waterproof and virtually indestructable, and unlike an alarm remote, it does NOT require batteries.

Hidden Transceiver
The hidden transceiver is an important part of CarDefender's success. This small device may be mounted behind any non-metallic part of your car. Many customers mount their's behind the dash or the side of the center console, even hidden inside the drivers seat, but you have the option of mounting it almost anywhere you want. The transceiver is also waterproof.

Controller The controller is the brain of CarDefender. It's compact durable design allows it to be installed in the smallest of spaces. The 6-pin connector allows for easy connection to the wiring harness. Two female connectors on the end of the controller provide an easy "plug-in" connection to the transceiver and LED.

Wiring Harness
The wiring harness provides a great way to connect your controller to the circuits it needs. The harness is terminated at one end with a 6-pin connector to connect to the controller. The other end contains two spade connectors, two "butt-connectors" to crimp to your interrupted circuit, and a ring terminal to connect to a good chassis ground. Also included in your CarDefender kit is a "by-pass" plug that plugs in to the wiring harness and by-passes the CarDefender controller. This will allow you to eliminate your CarDefender as the source of any electrical problem should one arise in your vehicle.

LED The LED (Light Emitting Diode) is included with every CarDefender. The LED will flash when your car is immobilized or in valet mode. The purpose of the LED is to provide a visible theft deterrent, and to show you what mode CarDefender is in. (immobilized, run, or valet). If you do not wish to install the LED, just simply unplug it from the controller.
