New Key For Peugeot 207

Peugeot 207 is one of the most sought-after cars on the road. It's a compact car that has lots of character and fashion.

Over time however, they can suffer from certain issues. If not addressed immediately, these problems can become very grave.

Replacing a car key with certain kinds of vehicles could be a very costly and stressful procedure, especially when the car has been stolen.

Lost Keys

Peugeot is a car brand that is known for its high-quality vehicles. These cars have a sturdy security system that prevents unauthorized use of the vehicle. The system employs an electronic transponder that is secured with a unique code. This allows the immobilizer identify the correct key and turn on the engine. This makes it impossible for thieves to make use of stolen Peugeot keys.

A professional auto locksmith is competent to assist you in case you lose your car keys. They can cut you a replacement car key at your location. They can also program the key to use Peugeot's immobilizers and lock barrels. This is a less expensive option than going to an auto dealer.

The process of obtaining the spare Peugeot key is relatively easy for the majority of models (except for the 107, 108, and Bipper). However, you'll have to know the PIN code for your vehicle to get a new key. This could be a problem especially if you only have a limited amount of time to wait for the locksmith to arrive.

Transponder Fault

The immobilizer system in your Peugeot 207 verifies that the key you used to start your car is the one it needs. It does this by sending a signal from the microchip in your key to the ignition switch using an antenna. This is a safety feature that helps protect your car from being stolen.

When the immobilizer control device receives a signal from your key which is different from the code it's looking for, it will light the warning light that appears on the console or flash very quickly. This indicates that there is an issue and you might need to take the car to a Peugeot dealer to reset it and get the keys reprogrammed.

You can determine if there is a transponder issue in your key by reading it at a garage offering this service. They can do this for no cost and tell you if the chip is still reading correctly or if there is a problem elsewhere in the system stopping your Peugeot from getting started.

Unless you have accidentally swapped the original Peugeot key case with a different one (and thus lost the transponder chip) or damaged your key because it was wet, there's usually nothing to worry about. The most frequent problems with the immobilizer system arise due to a low battery in your key, a damaged antenna, or an electronic malfunction within the module and the engine computer.

Key Blade Wobble

Peugeot decided to go for something new in the early 2000's. In the beginning of 2000, Peugeot introduced a flip-key design instead of the trusted transponder chip encased in carbon. Unfortunately, the new design presented a number of major problems and one of the major ones is key blade wobble. This issue occurs when the key blade wears down that is the part of the key which goes into the lock. This causes the silver button inside the key to stop flipping out the mechanism and the key stops feeding into the lock properly.

It is fixable by re-cutting the blade to match. It is vital that the blade is copied from the old worn out key, not a generic replacement, as this won't give you a genuine shape and will wear in exactly the same way as your original key did. Your local Car Key Man auto-locksmith can provide you with a brand new blade to help you solve this problem.

Key Blade Damage

The blade for the key or, to be more precise, the'mouth' of the lock key will wear down. This could cause the key to get stuck inside the lock if it's not removed as quickly as it should be. This could lead to the common 'Immobiliser Fail that appears on your dashboard. There are a myriad of fairy tales on how to fix this problem however the reality is that the replacement of the key blade is required.

Fortunately, it is affordable and can be completed by local Car Key Man Auto Locksmith. They'll have to cut a new blade and then attach it to your Peugeot 207.

A high-quality Peugeot flip key should last for five years or more before tiny hairline cracks begin to appear on the circuit board that produces the transponder chip signal. These cracks don't affect the chip, but they could cause other issues with your Peugeot flip key.

One of the main issues with the Peugeot keys is that the flip mechanism, which holds the blade in place isn't working very well. This is particularly true of the Peugeot Partner, 407 and 107 models. This is because the key's "flip mechanism" has changed from the old model that was carbon-encased. This modification has caused four major issues, each of which can stop your Peugeot key from starting your car.
