Peugeot 206 Key Replacement

Peugeot 206 key replacement is a straightforward job that can be accomplished in just a few minutes. You will only need to transfer the immobilizer chip, battery and electronic components from your old keyfob and then the new.

Peugeot keyfobs in the 206 series can have a button-cell battery that fails. This video demonstrates how to replace the button cell 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 when the code isn't right. This helps prevent theft of cars that are not authorized. An expert automotive locksmith can assist you when your Peugeot immobilizer is not working. They can program a new or replacement key by using tools used for dealers. This can save you time and money. They will also come to you so you won't have to wait for a long time in the dealership.


Not all antitheft gadgets are created equal. The Thatcham Research organisation tests and gradings anti-theft technology to ensure it is in compliance with high safety standards. They test the system's performance by reading the messages sent between the immobilizer components as well as the CAN bus traffic.

Even the most robust systems can be vulnerable if targeted appropriately. In one study, researcher Jan Bokslag used known weaknesses in the Hitag2 immobilizer protocol to stealthily crack three cars, all of them older models. It took just ten seconds to retrieve the vehicle security code from one of the vehicles. This data is used to create an ignition key that disables the immobilizer. The other two were more difficult to break but they did become broken.

The Immobilizer Chip

A key with a chip (often called a Smart Key) has an RFID microchip inside that transmits a password to the car's immobilizer system. If the chip's code matches the one on the car's system, then 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 way. If the immobilizer cannot recognize the key the engine won't start even if someone attempts to short-circuit the ignition circuit.

Modern cars are equipped with electronic Engine Immobilizer systems that utilize rolling/changing security codes. This means that every time the key is used, the smart system changes the second code, and then pushes it into the chip within the key. The first code is permanent, and each time the key is inserted into the ignition, the immobilizer processes the two codes to determine if they are compatible.

This is an extremely advanced technology that is extremely difficult to hack. It's why most stolen cars aren't able to be started. It's also the reason that the moment your Peugeot starts up and then shuts down It's most likely not due to the immobilizer. It could be many electrical issues that are causing the car to stop functioning. Our auto locksmiths are able resolve these issues. They can also reprogram chipped or smart Peugeot Key to make it work again.

The Battery

Peugeot keys to cars have the transponder chip that, when coupled with the vehicle, disables 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 of the doors and boot. The chip is concealed within the head of the remote key or manual.

Peugeot had to contend with stiff competition when the 206 was launched in 1999, coming from superminis such as the Ford Fiesta or Volkswagen Polo. Peugeot's unique strategy was to position the 206 in between the Peugeot 106 range and the 306 range. This was to ensure that the lower models of the 306 and 106 could take sales away from the more expensive top 205s.

g28carkeys.co.uk  includes three models that include a hatchback (206 CC) as well as a cabriolet 2-door coupe, and a station wagon (206 SW). There was also a WRC homologated version of the 206 known as the 207 GTi which could go from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.4 seconds and speeds of 210 km/h.
