Lost Keys Peugeot is a car brand that is known for its quality vehicles. These cars are equipped with a robust security feature that stops unauthorized use of the vehicle.

However, you'll have to know the PIN number of your vehicle to learn a new key. This can be a headache particularly if you have only a short amount of time available to wait for the locksmith to show up. Transponder Fault The immobilizer system on your Peugeot 207 verifies that the key you used to start your vehicle is the one that it expects. It does this by transmitting an indication from the microchip inside your key to the ignition switch via an antenna. This is a security feature designed to safeguard your vehicle from being stolen. If peugeot boxer key receives a code from your key that isn't identical from the code it's expecting, it will either illuminate the warning light that appears on the console or flash rapidly. This indicates there is something wrong and you'll have to take the car to a Peugeot dealer to have it reset and the keys reset. If you bring your key to a garage that provides this service, they will examine it and determine if the transponder is defective. This is a free service and they'll inform you that your Peugeot isn't starting because there is a problem with the system. Unless you have accidentally swapped your original Peugeot keycase with another (and therefore lost the transponder chip) or damaged your key by getting it wet, it's nothing to be concerned about. The most frequent immobilizer problems are caused by a dead battery, a broken key antenna, or a electronic malfunction in the module and engine computer. Key Blade Wobble Peugeot decided to try something new in the first 2000's. In the early 2000's, Peugeot introduced a flip-key design instead of the traditional transponder chip that was encased in carbon. The new design had its challenges. One of the most serious is the wobble of the key blade. This happens when the blade on a key wears away that is the part of the key that gets into the lock. The silver button inside the lock stops turning the mechanism and the key will not be able to enter the lock. This can be fixed by cutting a new blade to the correct size. It is crucial that the blade is copied from your worn out key and not a generic one, because the latter won't give you the exact shape of your key and will continue to wear the same way. Your local Car Key Man auto locksmith can install a brand new blade and resolve this issue. Key Blade Damage Quite often the key blade is damaged, or more precisely the'mouth' on the key, wears out. If the key isn't removed quickly, it will become stuck in the lock. This leads to the common 'Immobiliser Fail' on your dashboard. There are a myriad of fairy tales about how to fix the issue, but in actual it is a need for a new blade. This is a very cost-effective task that could be accomplished by your local Car Key Man Auto Locksmith. They'll have to cut a new key blade and put it on your Peugeot 207. The circuit board which generates the signal for the transponder chip begins to show tiny hairline cracks after around five years. These cracks don't affect the chip, but they could cause other issues with your Peugeot flip key. The flip mechanism, which helps to keep the blade in its place is not very reliable. This is especially true on the Peugeot Partner, 407 and 107 series. This is because this key 'flip mechanism' has changed from the earlier model carbon-encased chips. This change has brought about four major issues, each of which can stop your Peugeot key from activating your car.
