What You Need to Know About Peugeot Keys
Peugeot has changed its image in the past few years through the introduction of a distinctive design for its cars. They are easy to drive using a gentle steering, and there is no body leaning at higher speeds.
Our mobile auto locksmiths employ the most modern technology and machinery to create a replacement car key for your Peugeot. This includes a chip programed into the vehicle.
Mechanical
Peugeot began their manufacturing venture in the early part of the 1800s, making kitchen equipment and hand tools. The company began by making umbrella frames and wire wheels before moving onto bicycles. They were the first to introduce rubber tires in 1892.
In 1900, they added a range of automobiles to their line of production. The first models were horseless carriages in appearance and steered by a tiller. In the same time, Peugeot also branched out into motorcycles.
In the age of modern Peugeots keys, they are more than just mechanical pieces of metal. The keys also contain a transponder, which adds additional security to stop car thieves from hotwiring the vehicle. If the key is lost or damaged, the car will not start and a warning message will display on the dashboard.
If you see an alert light in yellow which appears to be waves with an evaporator floating above and the dashboard, it's probably your Peugeot warning you that your engine is too hot. This could be the result of an issue with the cooling system or a sudden acceleration. You should stop the car and allow the engine to cool down. If this persists then you should seek out professional help from a Peugeot mechanic or dealer as soon as is possible.
Another common issue is a red warning light that shows two cars as well as the star with a red outline below. This means that your Peugeot's forward collision detection system is disabled and must be turned on.
Transponder
Before transponder keys became an everyday feature in cars, it was fairly simple for thieves to steal your vehicle. They could simply press your ignition switch into the on position and then start it up. This is no more possible as modern vehicles are equipped with an anti-theft security device embedded into the key.
The microchip that is in the key is a small device with non-volatile (meaning that it will not erase when power is cut) memory. The chip is equipped with a unique serial number, which is used as the "password" to turn on the engine. When you insert the key into your ignition, the chip will transmit this password to a receiver inside the immobilizer of your car. If the code is correct, your car will start up and you'll be off to the races.
If you lose your keys, you will need to find a locksmith who is reliable and can replace it. They will employ an instrument that reads the frequency of the chip in your vehicle to create a replacement key. This is usually much less expensive than going to the dealership where you purchased your vehicle. Be sure that the locksmith you choose uses this equipment prior to hiring them. You could end having to pay more for keys than you need to. Ask the locksmith if he uses a high-quality blank for your vehicle model.

Peugeot cars have an immobiliser system that relies on synchronisation with a tiny glass chip inside the key, which is encased with a unique code. When the key is put in the ignition the code is read by the immobiliser of the car to determine whether it is the correct one or not. If the chip isn't synchronised, then the car will not start and the engine will shut down. If this happens, you'll have to visit a Peugeot dealer and get a replacement key made to fit your vehicle.

Fob
Modern Peugeots come with a keyfob that can open and lock their vehicle by itself. The key fob is equipped with tiny mechanical blades that can be used as a backup in case the electronic component fails. The mechanical key can be opened inside the key fob by pressing or pulling the button. The fob will then transmit an ID code to the vehicle whenever keys are placed into the ignition barrel. If the code matches, the engine will start.
Some key fobs come with an emergency button that can be activated in case of emergency. This feature can be extremely useful if you are in a remote location and suspect that you may be about to get victimized or robbed. This feature allows you to contact the police and inform your neighbors about the incident. This could deter criminals from targeting your vehicle.
Dealers can design and program new Peugeot key fobs for you. However they're not likely to do it on the roadside, in the office parking lot, or even while you're enjoying your evening. Dealerships will only be in a position to offer these services if you're willing to bring your Peugeot to them to have it repaired. You'll also have to wait while they are working. Many people prefer to hire a professional automotive lockout service instead.
