Mechanical

Peugeot began their manufacturing venture in the early years of the 1800s with kitchen equipment and hand tools. They soon moved into umbrella frames and wire wheels before becoming the first to introduce bicycles and the first to fit rubber tires on their vehicles in 1892.

By 1900 they had added automobiles to their production line. These early models were essentially horseless in appearance and controlled by a tiller. During this period, Peugeot also branched out into motorcycles.

Modern keys for Peugeot are more complicated than the mechanical metal pieces. They also have a transponder chip inside them which provides extra security features to keep thieves from hotwiring your vehicle. If the key is damaged or lost the car won't start and a warning message will display on the dashboard.

The Peugeot will likely show the yellow warning light on your dashboard. It's like waves and has a thermometer floating on top of it. This means that the engine is getting too hot. This could be caused by leaks in the cooling system, or a sudden acceleration. You should stop the vehicle and allow the engine to cool down. If the problem persists, you should seek assistance from an Peugeot mechanic or dealership as soon as you can.

This is no longer possible as modern vehicles are equipped with a anti-theft security system embedded in the key.

The microchip inside the key is a small device that has non-volatile (meaning that it will not erase when power is cut) memory. This chip contains a unique serial number, which is used as the "password" to start the engine. When you insert your ignition key, this chip transmits the password to the receiver in your immobilizer. If the code is correct, your car will start, and you can be on your way.

If you lose your key in the event of a loss, you'll need contact a locksmith who is reputable and can replace it. Locksmiths use a special tool that reads the frequency needed from the chip in your vehicle to create an alternative key. This is usually less expensive than visiting the dealership for your vehicle. Be sure to check that the locksmith is equipped with this tool. You may end up paying more for your keys than you need to. Ask the locksmith if they're using high-quality blanks for your vehicle model.

Fob

Most modern Peugeots come with a key fob that will open and close the car automatically. The key fob has a small mechanical blade that can be used as a backup device in the event that the electronic component fails. The key blade is kept inside the key fob's slot that is accessible by pulling or pressing a button. The fob will then transmit an ID code to the vehicle when a key is placed into the ignition barrel. If the code is matched it, the engine will get started.

Some key fobs come with an emergency button that can be activated in an emergency. This feature is extremely beneficial if you're driving in an area that is not well-lit and are concerned that you might be in danger of being attacked or robbed.
