Our mobile auto locksmiths make use of the latest technology and equipment to create a replacement key for your Peugeot. This includes a transponder that's integrated into the vehicle.
Mechanical
Peugeot began their manufacturing venture during the early part of the 1800s when they began making kitchen equipment and hand tools. They soon progressed into umbrella frames and wire wheels, before becoming the first bicycle manufacturer and the first to fit rubber tires to their vehicles in 1892.
In 1900, they'd added a variety of cars to their line of production. These early models were essentially horseless in appearance, driven by a tiller. Peugeot began to manufacture motorcycles at this time.
In the modern Peugeots keys, they are more than just mechanical pieces of metal. There is also a transponder chip inside them that provides additional security features to prevent thieves from stealing your car's hotwire. If the key is damaged or lost the car will not start and an alert message will appear on the dashboard.

If you see the yellow warning light that resembles waves, and the thermometer floating over it 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 excessive acceleration. You must stop the vehicle and allow the engine to cool down. If the problem continues, you should contact a Peugeot mechanic promptly.
Another issue that is common is the red warning light that displays two cars and an eagle with a red outline beneath. This means that the Peugeot's forward collision detection system is disabled and needs to be turned on.
Transponder
Before transponder keys became a regular feature in automobiles it was relatively easy for thieves to get into your car. They could simply push your ignition switch into the off position and then turn it up. But, this is not possible anymore since most modern vehicles have an anti-theft device that has a security chip in the key.
The key's microchip is a miniaturized electronic device that has a non-volatile memory (meaning it doesn't erase if the power is cut). The chip contains an individual number that can be used as a "password" to start the engine. When you insert your key into your ignition it transmits the password to the receiver in your immobilizer. If the code is correct, your vehicle will start up and you'll be on your way.
If you lose your keys, you will need to contact a locksmith who's credible and can replace it. Locksmiths use a special tool that reads the frequency required by the chip of your car to create the replacement key. This service is often much less expensive than going to the dealership where you purchased your vehicle. Be sure to check that the locksmith has this tool. Otherwise, you could end up paying more than you should to duplicate your keys. Ask the locksmith if they're using an excellent blank for your car model.
Remote
Peugeot cars are equipped with an immobiliser that's connected to the embedded glass chip in the key. The chip has a unique code. The immobiliser reads this code each 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 won't start and the engine will shut down. In this case you'll have to visit your local Peugeot dealer to have an additional key for your vehicle.
If you're replacing a remote or smart Peugeot key, you will have to find an experienced auto locksmith that has the technology, machinery and tools needed to create the new key.

Fob
The majority of modern Peugeots come with a key fob which can open and lock the car automatically. The key fob is also equipped with a small key blade that can be used in an emergency event if the electronic component fails. The mechanical key is stored inside the key fob in a slot that is accessible by pushing or pulling a button. The fob will then send an ID code to the vehicle every time a key is in the ignition barrel. If the code matches the code, the engine will begin to run.
Some key fobs come with the panic button that can be activated in an emergency. This feature can be extremely useful for when you're driving through a remote area and you think you're about to be robbed or assaulted. It will assist you in contacting the police or inform neighbors of the situation, which will discourage criminals from attacking your vehicle.
Dealers can create and program new Peugeot key fobs for you. However they're unlikely to do it on the roadside, in your office parking area or even while you're relaxing in the evening. Dealerships will only be in a position to offer these services if you are willing to bring your Peugeot to them to have it repaired. They will also need to wait while they work. Many people prefer hiring a professional locksmith service instead.
