Keyless Entry Some key fobs are also able to start the engine of your car. This can be useful if you have to leave your vehicle during hot weather, or if you're carrying heavy objects in the boot that make it difficult to open the door manually. To start peugeot 1007 key fob programming using your key fob, press the unlock button on it a few times in quick intervals. The door locks will close and the red light will begin to flash. If it doesn't it means that the battery inside your key fob might be dead and requires replacement. Also, RF interference coming from nearby buildings may disrupt your system. Another nifty feature is that some key fobs are equipped with a physical key that can be used to unlock the car (often only for the door of the driver, but occasionally for the boot too). You can open them by lifting the flap or pressing a button. The key's physical form can be pulled out of the slot in the case. Key fobs may be damaged by water – especially when the chips inside are exposed to soapy or salty water. In some instances, key fobs will stop working completely due an issue with the chip.

Remote Start You can start your car without needing to carry your keys on you. This is especially useful when it's hot outside and you want to cool your vehicle while you run some errands. There are a few things you must know before you use this feature. Some key fobs feature an exclusive remote engine start button (for instance, Ford's key fob has an arrow in a circle that goes clockwise) which you must press in order to remotely start your car. Others, like Mazda's, require that you first secure the key, and then press the start button. If you're not able to start your car, you might have a dead or weak battery inside the key fob. This is because the batteries inside the key fob aren't strong enough to send a strong signal to the car's system. If this happens, either replace the batteries or re-program your key fob.

Door Locks The Peugeot 3008 remote system allows you to lock or unlock your car by pressing the button on your key fob. Unlike the traditional key that has a key hole that is physical this key fob is able to store an encrypted copy of the car key inside. For this, it employs an exclusive radio signal that is only sent out when the key is within a certain range of the vehicle. A solenoid inside the door lock transforms the electronic command into a mechanical one once the signal is detected. The rod is then turned to operate the car door locks just as the physical key would. If you notice that a Peugeot key fob has stopped locking or unlocking the car, there are several possibilities of the cause. The most frequent reason is a dead battery. This can be replaced within minutes. Other reasons include worn buttons, water damage signals interference or a malfunctioning electronic chip. Modern cars require a very high degree of precision in order to function and the key fob is not in any way immune to this. The key fob may be programmed incorrectly, or have an issue with the hardware that stops it from responding to a signal from the vehicle. A locksmith certified by the ICRC can reprogram your key fob to ensure that it is compatible with your vehicle. Immobiliser Peugeot were among the first car makers to incorporate an immobiliser chip in a key. The chip prevents the car from starting if it detects an untrue signal coming from the key to the car. This is great when they're brand new but as time passes, the chips can get worn out and cause issues. It usually happens when you see an alert on your dashboard saying 'anti-theft system active or a warning lamp which reads 'immobiliser failed'. Peugeot dealerships are typically called to design and program replacement keys. Mobile locksmiths utilize dealer-standard equipment on their van. This means they can make new Peugeot keys at your house or by the roadside quicker than dealers. Generally Peugeot keys start to have issues when the blade of the key wears out. This wear can cause the mouth of the key not to get into the lock correctly, which can cause further wear on the locks. Sometimes, simply changing the blade will help resolve the problem. It may also be helpful to have the teeth of the key replaced so that they can operate more efficiently. Only a licensed auto locksmith is able to do this, but it will save you a lot of time and money in the long run.
