New Key For Peugeot 207

Peugeot 207 is one of the most adored automobiles on the road. It's a compact car that has lots of character and design.

Over time they may suffer from certain issues. These can be quite serious if they aren't addressed quickly.

It can be costly and difficult to replace the car key, especially when it was stolen.

Lost Keys

Peugeot is known for its top-quality automobiles. They have a strong security system that blocks any unauthorized use of the vehicle. The system is based on an electronic transponder that is encrypted with a unique code. The immobilizer will then be able to identify the correct key to turn on the vehicle. This makes it impossible for thieves to use stolen Peugeot keys.

A professional auto locksmith is able to help you if you've lost your car keys. They will come to your location and cut you a new spare car key. They can also program the key to work with Peugeot's immobilizers as well as lock barrels. This is a far cheaper alternative rather than going to a dealer.

The process for getting the spare Peugeot key is relatively simple for most models (except for the 107 and 108 Bipper). You'll need the PIN number of your vehicle to get the new key. This can be a challenge especially if you have an extremely short time to wait for a locksmith.

Transponder Fault

The immobilizer in your Peugeot 207 verifies the key you used to begin the car is the right one. It does this by transmitting an indication from the microchip embedded in your key to the ignition switch using an antenna. This is a safety feature that prevents your car from being taken away.

The warning light will flash or be lit on the console when the immobilizer receives a different code from the one it is expecting. This indicates that something is not right and that you may need to surrender your car to an Peugeot dealer with your registration card as well as an identity document to reset the system and the keys programmed.

If you take your key to a garage who offers this service, they can scan it and determine whether the transponder is not functioning properly. They can perform this service for free and tell you if the chip is still functioning properly or if there is a problem in the system stopping your Peugeot from beginning.

There is generally no need to worry unless you have accidentally swapped the original Peugeot key case for another (and lost the transponder) or damaged your key when it got wet. The most common problems that affect the immobilizer system are caused by a weak battery in your key, a damaged antenna, or an electronic malfunction within the module and the engine computer.

Key Blade Wobble

Peugeot decided to do something different at the beginning of 2000. Instead of the stable kind of carbon encased transponder chips they introduced a flip key design. Unfortunately, the new design presented a number of major problems among them most prominent is the key blade wobble. This problem occurs when the key blade, which is basically the mouthpiece that is inserted into the lock first, wears. This causes the silver button inside the key to stop turning the mechanism and the key stops feeding into the lock properly.

This is easily fixed by a new blade that is cut to match. It is important that the blade is copied from the old worn out key, not a generic replacement, because this will not 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 install a brand new blade and solve this frustrating issue.

Key Blade Damage

The blade for the key or, to be more precise, the'mouth'' of the lock key, may wear out. If the key is not removed quickly, it will become stuck in the lock. This can lead to the common 'Immobiliser Fail that appears on your dashboard. There are many fairy tales about how to fix the problem, but in reality a new blade is required.

Fortunately, it is cost-effective and can be completed by local Car Key Man Auto Locksmith. They'll just need to cut a new blade and attach it to the Peugeot 207 key.

The circuit board which generates the signal for the transponder chip will start to show tiny hairline cracks after around five years. These cracks aren't affecting the chip but they do cause other problems with your Peugeot key.

One of the biggest problems with the Peugeot keys is that the flip mechanism that holds the blade in place isn't very effective. This is particularly relevant to the peugeot boxer key Partner, Peugeot 107 and Peugeot 407 ranges. This is due to the fact that the key's "flip mechanism" has been upgraded from the earlier model, carbon-encased chips. This change has led to four major issues that can cause problems to your Peugeot key from working.
