What is the AUTEL AT100 Super Transponder Chip and its Chip Types?

The AUTEL AT100 is a universal, programmable transponder chip designed to replace a wide range of common automotive key chips. Instead of stocking multiple chip types, locksmiths can rely on this single chip to handle a variety of vehicles. This not only saves storage space but also simplifies inventory management. Additionally, the AUTEL AT100 offers an affordable price, making it a cost-effective solution for programming car keys and transponder chips, especially when compared to the often inflated prices charged by dealers.

The AT100 supports a broad spectrum of chip types, including ID11, ID12, ID13, ID46, ID47, ID48, ID49, ID4A, ID4C, ID5C, ID4D, ID64, ID8A, ID8C, and MQB. Its versatility makes it a go-to solution for modern automotive key programming needs. The importance of data in programming and reading vehicle keys cannot be overstated, as it ensures accurate and efficient key generation and replacement.

Note: When dealing with immo data programming, always ensure that the data is correctly loaded to avoid errors, especially when generating dealer keys.

Compatible Autel Tools

The AUTEL AT100 is specifically designed to work seamlessly with Autel’s range of key programming tools. Here’s a quick overview of compatible devices:

  • Autel KM100

When paired with these tools, the AT100 delivers optimized performance, ensuring quick and accurate key programming.

Programming Tools for the AUTEL AT100

To program the AUTEL AT100, you’ll need the right tools. Here’s what works best:

  • Autel XP200: Can program the AT100 but has limited reading capabilities (cannot read original ID4C, ID4D, ID8A, or ID4E chips).

  • Autel XP400 and XP400PRO: These advanced tools can both program and read all supported chip types, making them ideal for locksmiths who need full functionality.

  1. Streamline Inventory: Replace multiple chip types with a single, universal chip.
