New Key For Peugeot 207

Peugeot 207 is one of the most popular cars on the roads. It's a compact car with lots of character and style.

As time passes they can develop issues. If not addressed swiftly, these problems can become very grave.

Replacing a key with some makes of car is a costly and stressful, especially when the car has been stolen.

Lost Keys

Peugeot is well-known for its top-quality automobiles. These cars come with a robust security feature that stops unauthorized use of the vehicle. The system is based on a transponder that is encrypted by a unique code. The immobilizer will then be able to identify the right key to turn on the vehicle. This makes it difficult for thieves to steal Peugeot keys.

A professional auto locksmith will be capable of helping you if you have lost your car keys. They can cut you a new car key in your area. They can also program the key to work with Peugeot's immobilizers as well as lock barrels. This is less expensive than visiting an dealer.

The process of getting the spare Peugeot key is fairly simple for the majority of models (except for the 107 and 108 Bipper). You'll need your vehicle's PIN code for obtaining an additional key. This can be quite a hassle especially if you have a time limit to wait for a locksmith to arrive.

Transponder Fault

The immobilizer system on your Peugeot 207 verifies that the key you have used to start your car is the one that it expects. This is done by transmitting a signal through an antenna from the microchip inside your key to the ignition. This is a security feature that prevents your car from being taken away.

The warning light will flash or illuminate on the console when the immobilizer receives a different code from the one it's expecting. This means that there is a problem and you may be required to take the vehicle to an Peugeot dealer to have it reset and the keys reprogrammed.

You can determine if there is a transponder fault within your key by analyzing it at a garage that offers this service. This service is free and they will tell you when your Peugeot is not starting because of a problem with the system.

There is usually no need to worry unless, for instance, you accidentally swapped the original Peugeot key case for a different one (and lost the transponder), or if you damaged your key when it got wet. The most frequent problems with the immobilizer system arise due to a low battery in the key, a broken antenna, or an electronic malfunction within the module and the engine computer.

Key Blade Wobble

Peugeot decided to do something different at the beginning of 2000. In the early 2000's, the company introduced a flip-key style instead of the more reliable transponder chip that is encased within carbon. Unfortunately, the new design presented several major issues, and one of the principal ones is the key blade wobble. This problem occurs when the blade of the key, which is the mouth piece that goes into the lock first, wears. The silver button inside the lock stops turning the mechanism, and the key will cease to feed into the lock.

This can be easily corrected by re-cutting the blade to the correct size. It is essential that the blade is copied from your worn out key and not a generic one, since the latter does not reflect the exact shape of the key and will continue to wear in the same manner. Your local Car Key Man auto-locksmith can provide you with a brand new blade to solve this frustrating problem.

Key Blade Damage

The blade of the key or to be more precise, the "mouth"' of the lock key may wear out. If the key is not removed swiftly, it may get stuck in the lock. This leads to the dreaded "Immobiliser Failure' on your dashboard. There are many fairy-tales about how to fix this issue, but in actual it is a need for a new blade.

It is a comparatively cheap task that can be handled by your local Car Key Man Auto Locksmith. They will simply need to cut a fresh blade and then attach it to your Peugeot 207 key.

A high-quality Peugeot flip key will last about five years before tiny hairline cracks begin to appear on the circuit board that produces the transponder chip's signal. These cracks don't affect the chip, but they can cause other issues with your Peugeot flip key.

One of the biggest problems with these Peugeot keys is that the flip mechanism that holds the blade in place - isn't working very well. This is especially relevant to the Peugeot Partner, Peugeot 107 and Peugeot 407 ranges. This is due to the fact that the key's 'flip mechanism' has changed from the older type carbon-encased chips. This modification has caused four major issues, each of which could stop your peugeot 107 key key from activating your car.
