Peugeot 206 Key Replacement

Peugeot 206 key fobs have a button cell battery that can fail. This video explains how to replace the battery.
The Immobilizer System
When you insert your Peugeot key into the ignition and turn it, it transmits an electronic signal to the engine management system. The engine will not start if the code is not right. This stops theft of vehicles from unauthorized people. If you're experiencing problems with your Peugeot car immobilizer, an expert locksmith in the automotive industry can help. They can program a new or replacement key using tools that are standard for dealers. This can save time and money. They'll also come to you so you won't have to spend a lot of time at the dealership.
However there are many antitheft systems, and not all are designed to be equally effective. The Thatcham Research organisation tests and grade anti-theft technology in order to ensure that it meets high safety standards. They are able to test the performance of the system by accessing the CAN bus network and analyzing messages that the components of an immobilizer exchange.
However, even the most secure systems can be hacked if they are targeted properly. In one study, researcher Jan Bokslag used known weaknesses in Hitag2's immobilizer protocol to hack into three cars which were all older models. In a matter of ten seconds, the security code for the vehicle was extracted from one of them. This data is used to create a key that disables the immobilizer. The other two keys were more difficult to crack but eventually, they were.
The Immobilizer Chip
A chipped key, also known as a Smart Key, has a RFID micro-chip that transmits the passcode from the key to the immobilizer system of the car. If the code on the chip is identical to the system of the car the car will start.
This is a very important security measure that stops car thieves from hotwiring the immobilizer, or bypassing it in any other method. If the immobilizer does not recognize the key the engine will not start even if someone attempts to short-circuit the ignition circuit.
Most modern cars have advanced electronic Engine Immobilizer systems that use rolling or changing security codes. This means that each time a key is used, the intelligent system changes the second code and inserts it into the chip in the key. The first code is a permanent one and the immobilizer checks the codes every time the ignition key is turned.
This is an extremely sophisticated technology that's difficult to hack. This is the reason that most stolen vehicles can't be powered up. If your Peugeot begins to run but then stops it's probably not the immobilizer. It could be one of several electrical issues that are causing the car to stop working. Our auto locksmiths can assist you to resolve these problems. They can also reprogram your chipped or smart Peugeot key so that it'll function again.
The Battery
Peugeot keys for cars contain a transponder chip which, when used in conjunction with the vehicle, disarms the standard immobiliser system which is housed in the ECU (engine control unit). This allows the vehicle to start and additionally allows the key fob to operate the doors and boot. The chip is concealed in the head of the remote key or manual key.
When the 206 was first introduced in 1999, Peugeot was facing stiff competition from superminis like the Ford Fiesta and Volkswagen Polo. Peugeot's unique strategy was to position it between the Peugeot 106 range and the 306 range. The lower models of both the Peugeot 106 and 306 were designed to take the sales of the higher-end 205s.
