Lost Keys

Peugeot is a brand of cars that is known for its top-quality vehicles. These cars are equipped with a powerful security system that prevents unauthorized use of the vehicle. The system is based on a transponder chip secured with a unique code. This allows the immobilizer to recognize the proper key and then turn on the engine.

The process of getting the spare Peugeot key is fairly simple for most models (except for the 107, 108, and Bipper). You will need to know the PIN code of your vehicle to acquire the new key. This can be a challenge, especially if you have very little time to wait for the locksmith to show up.

Transponder Fault

The immobilizer on your Peugeot 207 verifies the key you used to start the vehicle is the correct one. It does this by sending an electronic signal from the microchip in your key to the ignition switch through an antenna. This is a security function designed to protect your vehicle from being stolen.

The warning light will either flash or glow on the console if the immobilizer is receiving an incorrect code from the one it anticipates. This indicates that something is not right and that you may need to surrender your car to a Peugeot dealer, along with your registration card and identification document, in order to reset the system and the keys changed.

If you bring your key to a garage who offers this service, they will examine it and determine if the transponder is defective. They can perform this service for free and will let you know whether the chip is working properly or if it is a problem in the system stopping your Peugeot from starting.

Unless you have accidentally swapped the original Peugeot keycase with another (and therefore lost the transponder chip) or damaged your key because it was wet, it's nothing to be concerned about. The most frequent issues with the immobilizer system are caused by a weak battery in the key, a broken antenna, or electronic failure within the module and the engine computer.

Key Blade Wobble

peugeot 107 key decided to test something new in the first 2000's. In the early 2000's, the company introduced an alternative to the traditional transponder chip that is encased within carbon. The new design did not come without its challenges. One of the most problematic is the wobble of the key blade. This issue happens when the key blade wears down that is the part of the key that goes into the lock. This causes the silver button inside the key to stop flipping the mechanism and the key ceases to feed into the lock correctly.

It is essential that the blade is duplicated from your worn-out key and not a generic one, as it does not reflect the exact shape of your key and will continue to wear in the same manner. Your local Car Key Man auto-locksmith can provide you with a brand new blade to solve this frustrating problem.

This can lead to the dreaded "Immobiliser fault" on your dashboard. There are many fairy tales on how to fix the problem, but in reality it is a need for a new blade.

A good Peugeot flip key should last about five years before tiny hairline cracks start to appear on the circuit board that creates the transponder chip's signal. These cracks are not affecting the chip, but they can cause other problems for your Peugeot flip key.

The flip mechanism, which keeps the blade in place it isn't the most reliable. This is particularly in the Peugeot Partner, Peugeot 107 and Peugeot 407 models. This is because the structure of the key's 'flip' mechanism has been changed from the original type, carbon-encased chips. This modification has caused four major issues, all of which could prevent your Peugeot key from starting your car.
