Our mobile auto locksmiths utilize the latest technology and equipment to create a replacement car key for your Peugeot. This includes a transponder chip embedded into the vehicle.
Mechanical
Peugeot began their manufacturing operations in the early part of the 1800s with kitchen equipment and hand tools. The company started by making umbrella frames and wire wheels before moving to bicycles. They were the first to introduce rubber tires in 1892.
In 1900, they had added cars to their line of production. These early models were essentially horseless in appearance, driven by a tiller. Peugeot began to develop motorcycles around this time.
Modern Peugeot keys are more complex than mechanical pieces of metal. The keys also contain transponders, which offer extra security to deter thieves from hotwiring the vehicle. If the key is damaged or lost the car won't start and a warning message will appear on the dashboard.
If you notice a yellow warning light which appears to be waves with a thermometer floating above that is displayed on your dashboard, it's most likely that your Peugeot telling you the engine is getting too hot. This may be due to heavy acceleration or a leak in the cooling system. If this occurs, you should stop and let the engine cool down. If this persists then you should seek help from a Peugeot mechanic or dealership as soon as you can.
A red warning light that has two cars and a star underneath an outline of red is a frequent issue. This means that your Peugeot's forward collision detection system is turned off and needs to be enabled.
Transponder
Before transponder key technology was widely used in automobiles, it was fairly easy for thieves to steal cars. They could just push the ignition switch to the on position, and then start it up. This is no longer a possibility because modern cars are equipped with an anti-theft security chip embedded in the key.
The key's microchip functions as a miniature electronic device with non-volatile memory (meaning it won't erase after the power is cut). This chip contains a unique serial number, which is used as the "password" to start the engine. When you insert the ignition key it transmits the password to the receiver in your immobilizer. If the code is valid, your car will start and you'll be on your way.
If you lose your transponder's keys, you'll need to visit a reputable locksmith who can replace it. Locksmiths use a specific tool that reads the frequency required from the chip in your vehicle to create an alternative key. This service is usually cheaper than visiting the dealership of your vehicle. Make sure that the locksmith you choose uses this device before you hire them. Otherwise, you could end spending more than you would to duplicate your keys. Also, make sure to inquire if the locksmith you're working with has the highest-quality key blanks for the model you have.
Distance Learning
Peugeot cars are equipped with an immobiliser that is synchronised with an embedded glass chip inside the key. This chip contains an individual code. The immobiliser reads this code every time the key is put into the ignition to determine if it is correct or not. If the chip isn't properly synchronised, the car will not start and the engine will stop. In this instance you'll need to visit your local Peugeot dealer to get the new key created for your vehicle.
If you're replacing a remote or smart Peugeot key, you will need a professional auto locksmith with the machinery, technological knowledge and tools needed to create the new key. A reputable auto locksmith will have a mobile unit which can be used to program and cut Peugeot car keys for you. This will save you money the expense of going to the dealership to replace your car key.

Fob
Modern Peugeots come with a keyfob that can open and lock their vehicle by itself. The key fob is also equipped with the small mechanical key blade that can be utilized in the event of an emergency, if the electronic component fails. The key blade is kept inside the key fob's slot that can be accessed through a pull or push button. The fob will send an ID code whenever an ignition barrel is opened and a key ignition barrel is placed. If the code matches the engine will begin to run.
Some key fobs include an emergency button that can be activated in an emergency. This feature is extremely beneficial if you're driving in an area that is not well-lit and suspect that you may be about to get attacked or robbed. This feature allows you to contact the police and notify your neighbors to the situation. This will deter criminals from pursuing the vehicle.
Dealers can create and program new Peugeot key fobs for you. However they're not likely to do this by the roadside, at your office parking area or even while you're enjoying your evening. Dealerships are only able to offer the services if you're able to bring your Peugeot to them for repairs and they'll require you to wait while they work on it. Many prefer hiring a professional locksmith service instead.
