Peugeot remote keys and standard keys
We are specialists in supplying and cutting general keys and car keys and can assist with virtually any model past or present. We also supply replacement Peugeot remote keys and can often reprogram existing units in the case of a fault. These services can be quickly carried out to duplicate any remotes and cut any keys from existing patterns. However, we can also offer a 'cut to code' service for keys for many later model vehicles. As a result, lost car keys or broken car keys need no longer be a major problem. Please visit our main page about car keys and vehicle remotes, or contact us and we will be delighted to assist.
If one of the remote keys for your Peugeot has stopped working, it may sometimes be possible for you to re-synchronise it without needing professional assistance. This may be necessary if the battery has been replaced or buttons have been pressed a number of times when out of range of the vehicle. We obviously cannot guarantee this process will always work, but the procedures for various applicable Peugeot models are shown below.
Please note, re-synchronisation is usually only possible with a remote that has previously worked properly with a specific car. In most cases, it will not work for a different vehicle, even if it is exactly the same model. For a number of vehicles, remotes and remote keys use a 'one-time code', which means that a remote initially programmed to work with a specific vehicle cannot even be reprogrammed to work with a different one. Because of this, we strongly advise against buying remotes from any unknown source or buying any second-hand units. If the procedures below are not successful, please call us. We will be able to help you and if you are reasonably local, we can usually come out to you.

Peugeot key and remote types
There are various keys, remotes and remote keys available for different Peugeot models. Up to around 1994, all the keys were 'standard' types, with no inbuilt security devices. From approximately 1995 onwards, depending on the actual model, various types of keys and remotes were produced, but all have electronic security incorporated. The basic types have a security chip. This does not use a battery, but is 'recognised' by the vehicle's security system and allows the car to be started. Other types with locking/unlocking buttons use a small battery and synchronise with the car's electronics, including central locking and security systems.
Nearly all later model Peugeot remote keys are programmed to a specific vehicle and require a PIN code for initial activation. This is a once-only code, which means that once programmed, a remote will never be able to be used with a different vehicle. If you have this code (it is normally on a small card together with the other vehicle documents) we can easily provide replacement remotes. Even if not, we can obtain the code for you.
