Mechanical
Peugeot began their manufacturing operation in the early 1800s using kitchen equipment and hand-tools. They soon progressed into umbrella frames and wire wheels before becoming an early pioneer in bicycles and the first company to put rubber tires to their vehicles in 1892.
By 1900 they had added cars to their production line. These early models were horseless carriages in appearance and controlled by a tiller. In this time, Peugeot also branched out into motorcycles.
Modern keys for Peugeot are more complicated than the mechanical metal pieces. They also have a transponder chip in them that has additional security features to keep 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.
The Peugeot will most likely display the yellow warning light on your dashboard. It's like waves. It also has a thermometer floating on top of it. This indicates that the engine is heating up. This could be caused by leaks in the cooling system or a sudden acceleration. You must stop the vehicle and let the engine cool down. If the issue persists you should consult a Peugeot mechanic immediately.
A red warning light with two cars and a star underneath an outline of red is a typical issue. This means that the Peugeot's forward collision detection system has been disabled and needs to be turned on.
Transponder
Before transponder keys were a standard feature in automobiles it was quite easy for thieves to get into your car. They could simply press your ignition switch into the on position, and then start it up. This is no longer a possibility since modern vehicles are equipped with a anti-theft security chip embedded in the key.
The microchip that is in the key is a tiny device that is non-volatile (meaning that it doesn't erase when power is cut) memory. The chip contains an unique number that is used as a "password" to start the engine. When the key is inserted into your ignition, the chip sends this password to the receiver in your car's immobilizer. If the code is entered correctly, your car will start, and you'll start your journey.
If you lose your transponder key then you'll have to visit a trusted locksmith who will replace it. These locksmiths can use an instrument specifically designed to read the required frequency from your vehicle's transponder chip and then design a new one for you. This is typically less expensive than going to the dealership of your vehicle. Be sure that the locksmith you choose has this tool prior to hiring them. You could end having to pay more for your keys than you're entitled to. Also, be sure to ask if the locksmith you're working with is using a high-quality key blank for your particular model.
Remote
Peugeot cars are equipped with an immobiliser that is controlled by the embedded glass chip in the key. The chip is able to store an unique code. The immobiliser reads this code every time the key is inserted into the ignition to determine if it is in fact correct or not. If the chip is not synced, then the car will not start and the engine will shut down. In this scenario, you'll need to visit your local Peugeot dealer to have a new key made for your vehicle.
If you are replacing the remote or a smart Peugeot key, you will have to find an experienced auto locksmith with the technology, equipment and tools required to create the new key. A professional locksmith will have a mobile unit that can be used to cut and program the Peugeot car key for you, which will save you the expense of having to purchase the car key replaced at an auto dealer.

Fob
Modern Peugeots come with a keyfob that can open and lock their vehicle automatically. The key fob comes with a small mechanical blade that can be used as a backup in the event the electronic component fails. The mechanical key is accessible inside the key fob through pushing or pulling a button. The fob will then send an ID code to the vehicle when the key is placed into the ignition barrel. If the code is matched, the engine will start.
Certain key fobs feature a panic switch that can be activated in an emergency. This feature is extremely useful should you be in an area with no security and you believe you're likely to be assaulted or robbed. This feature will allow you to notify the police and alert your neighbors of the situation. This could discourage criminals from targeting your car.

Dealerships will only be able to provide services if there is time to bring your Peugeot to them for repairs and they will require you to be patient as they work on it. Many prefer hiring a professional automotive lockout service instead.
