Rep Power: 0 yes i believe i was told that the chip is in the black hard rubber part that leads to a sensor at the tip of the key, i was told to becareful not to drop our keys too much cause you could damage the tip of the key, and thats also why spare keys cost like $65 dollars to make.

Rep Power: 0 Yes they are...there is a device in the key itself that sends a signal to the ignition to start the car. If you do not have this device you can't start the car. I think all hondas have this feature.

Rep Power: 0 maybe not computer coded but they do have a microchip inserted into the black rubber of the key, it transmitts a CODE(frequency) to the ignition control unit, then starts the igniton. thank you

Rep Power: 0 That is correct. This is why you keep hearing the word "immobilizer" thrown around so much. You know that little green key light on the gauge panel that lights up whenever you turn your car on and off? That's the immobilizer. It will only allow a properly coded key to start your car. At least, that's what it's SUPPOSED to do.

Does that mean that you have to have the key in to start your car if you get a start push button. It would make me feel better about them.[hr]
