The Immobilizer System

When you insert and turn your peugeot car keys key, it transmits a code electronically to the engine control system. If the code doesn't match the code, the engine won't start.

However there are many antitheft systems, and not all are made equal. The Thatcham Research organisation tests anti-theft technologies and evaluates them to ensure they comply with high safety standards. They are able to test the functionality of the system by accessing CAN bus traffic and reading messages that the components of an immobilizer exchange.

Even the most robust systems are vulnerable if they're targeted appropriately. In one study conducted by researcher Jan Bokslag used known weaknesses in the Hitag2 immobilizer protocol to hack three cars, all of them older models. In just ten seconds, the vehicle's security code was obtained from one of the vehicles. The information is then used to generate a working key, which disables the immobilizer. The other two keys were more difficult to crack, but they did eventually become broken.

The Immobilizer Chip

A chipped key (often known as a Smart Key) has an RFID microchip that transmits a passcode to the car's immobilizer system. If the code on the chip matches the code in the car's immobilizer, the car will start.

This is an important anti-theft feature that helps prevent car thieves from hotwiring or otherwise bypassing the engine immobilizer system. If the immobilizer isn't able to recognize the key, it won't permit the engine to start even if someone is trying to short-circuit the ignition circuit.

Most modern cars have advanced electronic Engine Immobilizer systems that use shifting or rolling security codes. This means that every time the key is used, the intelligent system changes the second code and pushes it into the chip inside the key. The first code is permanent and the immobilizer checks the codes every time the ignition key is turned.

This is a very sophisticated technology that is difficult to hack. This is why the majority of stolen cars aren't able to be started. It's also the reason why, if your Peugeot starts up and then stops working, it's likely not the immobilizer. Instead, it could be many electrical issues that have caused the car to stop functioning. Our auto locksmiths can help resolve these problems. They can also reprogram a chipped or smart peugeot 2008 key Key so that it will work again.

The Battery

The transponder chip found in Peugeot keys for cars when paired with the vehicle disables the immobiliser feature within the ECU. This allows the vehicle to be started and additionally allows the key fob to operate the doors and boot. The chip is hidden inside the head of a remote or manual key.

The 206 range includes the hatchback, a 2-door coupe cabriolet, and station wagons known as the 206 the CC and the 206 SW. There was also an WRC homologated version of the 206 dubbed the 207 GTi that could go from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.4 seconds and reached speeds of 210 km/h.
