My 206 has a factory alarm fitted, as confirmed by sevice box.
However, it has no square button by the handbreak.
Is there a way to enable / disable the ultrasonic sensors from the keyfob?
I have the newer style keyfob with no LED ans two buttons, one for lock, one for unlock.
I think they must have beeb inavertedly disabled and now I want to enable them again.
Doors bonet and tail gate all work fine.
Thank you.

Should be part of the alarm ECU which should be able to be enabled by peugeot planet I would have thought.

pull the cover off where the button should be near the hand break and see if the wire is there for the ultrasonic button

There isn't one.

Yes, but I'm not allowed to use it normaly.
Seriously though, the sensors were working fine a few months ago.
I seem to recall there was a way of doing it by the keyfob and maybe that's what happened.
No trouble codes btw.

Could it be the common knackered ultrasonics fault?
Not sure if they can be enabled/disabled using the remote. Never heard of that one.
Possible that they can be enabled using PP, but you'd want to know how they became disabled in the first place.

Have you got the sensors on the front pillars? I don't know why you wouldn't have the button if you have.

OK.
The alarm module was underneath the foot-rest on the LHS and was dis-lodged by all the troding.
Ultrasonic connector was unplugged.
'Have now re-located and secured the module at a better more accesible place near the BSI, pluged the connector in and now they work.
I also found a small 'dinky' type button on the loom buried in there which is for disabling the sensors.
For some reason they never fitted the handbrake alarm button and just left that in there hanging
(Even though alarm is factory fitted as confirmed by SB and wiring loom etc).
So now we are on the lookout for that panel (black) and button to add to the setup.

Did you buy it new? I thought it sounded odd, well done for fixing it though!

Thank you all for your help.
@ LeeThr: Yes, if it's black it will fit mine, if it's grey we need it for the other car. Does it include the square button and how much do you want for it?
@Steve 206: no, one previous lady owner.

I was thinking about this. Do the sensors In the pillars work? I'm wondering if that sensor has been disconnected at some time because of a fault. The usual alarm going off all the time springs to mind. I would think they work without the button, just cant see a reason for it to have been swapped for a blank and disconnected.

There was no blank swaped or anything.
They always used to work until recently when the small brown connector got un-pluged because the module got loose and was being troden-on being underneath the clutch-foot-rest on the LHS.
It's a LHD vehicle so alarm module location must be specific to this.
