The Immobilizer System


When you insert your Peugeot key into the ignition and turn it, it transmits an electronic code to the engine management system. If the code does not match the code, the engine won't start. This prevents unauthorized car theft. If you're having problems with your Peugeot car immobilizer, a skilled automotive locksmith can help. They can program a new or replacement key by using tools used for dealers. This can save time and money. They will also come to you and you won't need to spend a long time in the dealership.

However, not all antitheft systems are made equal. The Thatcham Research organisation tests and grades anti-theft technology to ensure it is in compliance with high safety standards. They can test the operation of the system by logging into the CAN bus and then reading messages that the components of an immobilizer exchange.

Even the most robust systems can be vulnerable if targeted in the right way. In one study conducted by researcher Jan Bokslag used known weaknesses in the Hitag2 immobilizer protocol to elude three vehicles that were all older models. In ten seconds, the security code of the vehicle was retrieved from one of the vehicles. This information is used to generate keys that disable the immobilizer. The other two were harder to break, but they did eventually break.

The Immobilizer Chip

A key that is chipped (often known as a Smart Key) has an RFID microchip which transmits a code to the car's immobilizer system. If the chip's code matches that on the car's system, then the car will begin to move.

This is an important anti-theft measure that prevents car thieves from hotwiring the immobilizer, or bypassing it in any other way. If the immobilizer fails to recognize the key the engine won't start even if someone attempts to short-circuit ignition circuit.

Most modern cars come with electronic Engine Immobilizer systems that utilize rolling or changing security codes. The intelligent system will change the second code each time the key's used and then insert it into the key's chip. The Key Lab is permanent and the immobilizer checks the codes each time the ignition key is turned.

This is a sophisticated technology that is hard to hack. This is the reason why many stolen vehicles aren't able to be started. If your Peugeot starts, but then stops it's likely to be the immobilizer. Instead, it could be a variety of electrical issues that have caused the car to stop functioning. Our auto locksmiths can help solve these issues. They can also reprogram your chipped or smart Peugeot key to function again.

The Battery

Peugeot car keys include the transponder chip that when coupled with the vehicle, disarms the vehicles standard immobiliser system that is located in the ECU (engine control unit). This allows the vehicle to start, and also allows key fob operation for the doors and boot. The chip is hidden inside the head of the remote or manual key.

When the 206 was launched in 1999 Peugeot was faced with a fierce competition from minivans such as the Ford Fiesta and Volkswagen Polo. The unique approach of Peugeot's 206 was that it wouldn't directly replace the 205, instead it was designed to be a bridge between the smaller Peugeot 106 and the larger 306 range. The lower models of both the Peugeot 106 and 306 were designed to take sales from the higher-end 205s.

The 206 range comprises three models that include an open-air hatchback (206 CC), a 2-door cabriolet coupe, and a station-wagon (206 SW). The 207 GTi was a WRC-homologated model of 206 that could go from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.4 seconds, and could reach a top speed up to 210 km/h.

The peugeot 206 is a well-loved choice of car for those looking for an affordable and stylish family car.

The Key Fob

Peugeot is a French car manufacturer founded in 1810. Peugeot is owned by PSA Peugeot Citroen. Peugeot cars are often considered to be among the top in their class. It is possible to replace your Peugeot key fob if it's worn out or broken. You just need to transfer the immobilizer chip, battery and electronics from your old key fob to the new one.

To make sure the new key works correctly, test it inside your vehicle. Ensure all doors are closed by turning off the ignition and then press the lock button on the fob three times. If the LED stops flashing, it is working. If it does not work you might have forgotten to transfer the transponder chip on your old key to your new key.
