Peugeot 207 is one of the most adored cars on the road. It's a small car with a lot of style and character.

In time they may experience issues. If they are not addressed promptly, these problems can become quite serious.

It can be expensive and stressful to replace a car key, especially in the event of theft.

Lost Keys

Peugeot is a car brand that is well-known for producing high-quality cars. These cars are equipped with a powerful security system that prevents misuse of the vehicle. The system uses the transponder chip, which is encrypted with a unique code. This enables the immobilizer to recognize the correct key and turn on the engine. This makes it impossible for thieves to steal Peugeot keys.

A professional auto locksmith will be able to help you if you lose your car keys. They'll cut you a new car key at your home. They can also program the new key to work with the immobilizer on your Peugeot and lock barrels. This is cheaper than going to an dealer.

The process of obtaining a spare Peugeot key is quite simple for most models (except for the 107 and 108 Bipper). You will need to know your vehicle's PIN code for obtaining an additional key. This can be quite a hassle particularly if you have an extremely short time to wait for a locksmith.

Transponder Fault

The immobilizer feature on your Peugeot 207 verifies that the key you used to start your vehicle is the one it needs. It does this by sending an electronic signal from the microchip in your key to the ignition switch through an antenna. This is a security feature that helps protect your car from being stolen.

If the immobilizer control unit receives a signal from your key that is not identical to the code it's anticipating, it will either light the warning light on the console or flash very quickly. This indicates that something is wrong and you may need to take the car to an Peugeot dealer with your registration card and identification document, in order to have the system reset and the keys programmed.

If you take your key to a garage who offers this service, they will analyze it and tell you whether the transponder is not functioning properly. This service is free and they'll inform you if your Peugeot is not starting because of a problem with the system.

There is generally no need to worry unless you accidentally switched the original Peugeot key case for another (and lost the transponder) or damaged your key when it got wet. The most common issues with the immobilizer system arise 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 try something different in the beginning of 2000's. In the early 2000's, the company introduced a flip-key design instead of the traditional transponder chip encased in carbon. Unfortunately, the new design presented many major issues one of the most prominent is the key blade wobble. This happens when a key blade wears out and is the part of the key that gets into the lock. The silver button inside the lock stops flipping the mechanism and the key will cease to be able to enter the lock.

Fortunately this is easy to fix with a new key blade, cut correctly to code. It is important that the blade is copied from the old worn out key, not a generic replacement since it won't give you a genuine shape and will wear in exactly the same way that the original key did. Your local Car Key Man auto-locksmith can provide you with a brand new blade to help you solve this issue.

Key Blade Damage

The blade for the key or to be more precise, the'mouth,' of the lock key, may wear out. This can cause the key to become stuck inside the lock if it's not removed in a timely manner. This can lead to the dreaded "Immobiliser fault" on your dashboard. There are numerous fairy tales on how to fix the issue, but in actual the need for a new blade is evident.

This is a relatively inexpensive task that can be accomplished by your local Car Key Man Auto Locksmith. They'll just need to cut a new blade and attach it to your Peugeot 207.

The circuit board that creates the signal for the transponder chip begins to show tiny hairline cracks around five years. These cracks do not affect the chip, but they can cause other problems for your Peugeot key.

One of the biggest issues with the Peugeot keys is that the flip mechanism that holds the blade in place - does not work well. This is especially relevant to the Peugeot Partner, Peugeot 107 and Peugeot 407 models. This is because this key "flip mechanism" has changed from the old model with carbon-encased chips. This change has brought about four major problems, all of which could stop your Peugeot key from activating your car.
