Thatcham immobilisers
Thatcham immobilisers
are known as category 2 or cat 2 for short and is the only type of immobiliser
to be approved by UK insurance companies. Fitting a Thatcham immobiliser
to your car could pay for itself when you consider the saving you make
from cheaper insurance.
There
are two main types of category 2 Thatcham immobilisers, touchkey and
transponder. A touchkey Thatcham immobiliser works by inserting an electronically
coded key into a receptacle on the dash board and turning the ignition
key within a set time limit. Transponder Thatcham immobilisers are easier
to use because the electronically coded keyfob sends a wireless signal
to the engine to let you start it normally by turning the ignition key.
Some
of best Touchkey Thatcham immobiliser manufacturers are: Cobra, Gemini,
GT and Toad. If you are looking for transponder Thatcham immobilisers
then we recommend Toad or Laserline
A Thatcham immobiliser
must isolate at least 2 circuits on the engine to prevent it from starting
without a coded touchkey or transponder, the starter motor is the most
important to isolate to avoid it turning over and save power. Some Thatcham
immobilisers have 3 circuit immobilisation which could include: starter
motor, ignition and fuel pump isolation.
