Mechanical

Peugeot began their manufacturing operations in the early part of the 1800s, making kitchen equipment and hand tools. The company began by manufacturing umbrella frames and wire wheels before moving onto bicycles. They were the first company to use rubber tires in 1892.

In 1900, they had added a range of automobiles to their line of manufacturing. The first models were reminiscent of carriages that were not steered by a tiller. Peugeot began to manufacture motorcycles during this time.

In the age of modern Peugeots, the keys are more than mere mechanical pieces of metal. They also have a transponder, which adds extra security to deter car thieves from stealing hotwires from the vehicle. If the key becomes damaged or lost the car will not start the car but will display an alert message on the dashboard.

The Peugeot will likely show an alert light in yellow on your dashboard that looks like waves. It also has a thermometer floating on top of it. This indicates that the engine is becoming too hot. This could be caused by a cooling system leak or an excessive acceleration. If this occurs, you should pull over and let the engine cool down. If this problem persists, you should contact a Peugeot mechanic as soon as you can.

Another issue that is common is a red warning sign that shows two cars and stars with a red outline below. This means that your Peugeot's forward collision detection system has to be turned on.

Transponder

Before transponder keys was commonplace in cars, it was relatively easy for thieves to take an automobile. They could simply force the ignition switch to the off position and then turn it up. This is no longer a possibility since modern vehicles are equipped with a anti-theft security chip that is embedded in the key.

The microchip in the key is a tiny device that is non-volatile (meaning that it will not erase when power is cut) memory. The chip has a unique number which is used as a "password" to start the engine. When you insert the key into your ignition, the chip sends the password to the receiver in your car's immobilizer. If the code is correct, the car will start up and you'll be off to the races.

If you lose your transponder key in the event of a loss, you'll need to find a reputable locksmith to replace it. They will employ a specific tool that reads the frequency required from the chip of your car to create a replacement key. This is usually less expensive than visiting the dealership for your vehicle. Make sure whether the locksmith offers this tool. You could end having to pay more for keys than you're entitled to. Also, make sure to ask if the locksmith you're working for uses a high-quality key blank for your model.

When the key is placed into the ignition the code is read by the immobiliser to determine if the key is the right one or not. If the chip isn't synchronised, then the car won't begin and the engine will shut down. In this instance, you'll need to visit your local Peugeot dealer to have a new key made for your vehicle.
