I have a 2nd fob for my car but no 2nd key

Wife went into timpsons to ask price of a new one.
Bloke behind counter said he couldn't give her a price as he said its not just a key it's part of the immobiliser

I thought the fob was the immobiliser not the key

2000 l series

Think im right in saying the fob is central locking and alarm, key has a transponder to immobilise, some one will put us right im sure. lol
