#1: No second key? Author: RockRulz, Location: Harlow, EssexPosted: Sun Nov 24, 2013 2:10 am ---- When I bought my 206 there was only ever one standard key with her. I would like to get a spare cut but would a normal shop key cutter do one? Also as I only got a basic key....could my car actually have remote central locking, because I've not got that kind of key I wouldn't know?
Probably 2 stupid questions.....but I am only a mere woman driver after all lol!

As Steve said, you will need a brand new immo chip. You then need to connect the car to PP2000 and pair the remote and the chip to the car. To do this you need the 4 digit security number usually found on a card in the glovebox, although why people leave them there I'll never understand.
There are 4 different remote circuit boards for multiplexed, so you need to make sure you get the right one.
I think total cost for a new fully functional key from the dealer is about £120

This is the one key that came with the car

If your car is a 53 plate, then the remote fob should look like this

#8: Re: No second key? Author: RockRulz, Location: Harlow, EssexPosted: Sun Nov 24, 2013 6:16 am ---- I have nothing but this basic key which isnt a remote by any means....just undoes the locks manually. I will get the VIN and PM you...thanks
#9: Re: No second key? Author: RockRulz, Location: Harlow, EssexPosted: Sun Nov 24, 2013 7:32 am ---- Looks like my car SHOULD have remote central locking but all keys have been lost and I just have a replacement standard key. Im not bothered about remote locking so I will just get another one cut.....do I just look on ebay for a 206 blank blade and then take it to Timpsons or other keycutting place?
#10: Re: No second key? Author: PugJH, Location: NorthantsPosted: Sun Nov 24, 2013 1:22 pm ---- You could get an extra key cut but it would only open the doors. It won't start the car mind. As above you would need an extra imob chip.
