What You Need to Know About Peugeot Keys

Our mobile auto locksmiths utilize the latest technology and equipment to create a replacement key for your Peugeot. This includes a transponder that's programmed into the vehicle.

Mechanical

Peugeot began their manufacturing operations in the early 1800s using kitchen equipment and hand-tools. The company started out by making umbrella frames and wire wheel before moving to bicycles. They were the first company to use rubber tires in 1892.

In 1900, they had added a range cars to their range of products. The first models were reminiscent of horses and were driven with a tiller. Peugeot began to manufacture motorcycles around this time.

In the current Peugeots keys, they are more than just mechanical pieces of metal. There is also a transponder chip in them which has extra security features to prevent thieves from hotwiring your car. If the key becomes damaged or lost, it will not start the car but will display an alert message on the dashboard.

If you see a yellow warning light that appears like waves, with an evaporator floating above and that is displayed on your dashboard, it's probably your Peugeot warning you that your engine is hot. This could be due to heavy acceleration or an issue with the cooling system. You must stop the vehicle and let the engine cool down. If the problem persists then you should speak to a Peugeot mechanic as soon as you can.

A red warning light that has two cars and a star under a red outline is another common issue. This means that your Peugeot's forward collision detection system has been disabled and must be turned on.

Transponder

Before transponder keys were a standard feature in automobiles it was quite easy for thieves to take your vehicle. They could simply turn the ignition switch to turn on, and start your car. However, this is no longer possible as most modern cars come with an anti-theft system with an encryption chip embedded in the key.

The key's microchip is a miniature electronic device with non-volatile memory (meaning it doesn't erase if the power is cut). The chip is equipped with a unique serial number that is used as the "password" to start the engine. When you insert your ignition key this chip sends the password to the receiver inside your immobilizer. If the code is valid, your car will start, and you can be on your way.

If you lose your transponder key then you'll have to visit a reputable locksmith to replace it. Locksmiths have an instrument that can identify the required frequency from the transponder chip in your vehicle and then design a new one for you. This is typically a lot cheaper than visiting the dealership of your vehicle. Make sure whether the locksmith offers this tool. You may end having to pay more for your keys than you should. Also, be sure to ask if the locksmith you're working for uses high-quality keys for the model you're using.

Remote

Peugeot automobiles have an immobiliser system that is based on synchronisation to a small glass chip inside the key, which is encoded with an unique code. Whenever the key is inserted into the ignition, this code is read by the immobiliser to determine if the key is the correct one or not. If the chip isn't synchronised, then the car won't start and the engine will stop. If this happens, you'll need to visit an Peugeot key fob replacement dealer to get a new key for your vehicle.

You'll need to speak with an experienced auto-locksmith that has the right tools, equipment, and technology to make a new Peugeot key.

Fob

Modern Peugeots include a keyfob which can be used to unlock and open their car by itself. The key fob comes with a small mechanical blade that can be used as a backup device in the event that the electronic component fails. The mechanical key is accessed inside the key fob by pressing or pulling on a button. The fob transmits an identification code when the key that is inserted into ignition barrel is inserted. If the code matches the code, the engine will begin to run.

Some key fobs include a panic button that could be pressed in the event of an emergency. This feature is extremely useful should you be in an area with no security and you think you're about to be assaulted or robbed. It will help you contact the police or alert neighbors to the situation, which could discourage criminals from attacking your car.

Dealers can design and program new Peugeot key fobs for you. However, they are unlikely to do this by the roadside, in your office parking area, or even while you're sitting in your lounge at night. Dealerships will only be able to provide services if you have time to bring your Peugeot to repair, and they'll require you to be patient until they finish the work.
