Your Family Will Be Grateful For Having This Citroen C1 Replacement Key
Citroen Berlingo Key Fob Troubleshooting

Citroen Berlingo Multispace fills a niche in the market for people carriers. Its sliding rear doors allow it to easily squeeze into parking bays, and its robust cabin is more bashing-proof than the majority of upmarket competitors.

But if your key fob has bathed in soapy or salt water, it could not work again - even after a fresh battery and reprogramming. The internal chip can be damaged because of exposure to water.

Water Damage

After retrieving your key fob from the puddle, pool or washing machine it's been swimming in, clear it of as much water as you can by shaking it. Then, lay it on the button side down and allow it to drain for a few minutes while you wipe the inside with a cloth. This will stop any condensation from causing damage to the electronic chip.

If your Mk 2 Citroen Berlingo or Mk 3 Citroen Berlingo dashboard warning light, which looks like the symbol of a car key, illuminates then this could indicate a fault with the immobilizer. This is a security function in the vehicle to prevent thieves from hotwiring. If this is the situation you'll be required to visit a Citroen dealer or a trained mechanic to address the issue.

A constant engine warning light could indicate that the power-assisted steering has a problem. If this is the situation, then you must take the car off and check that the pressure in the oil is in good order and that the temperature is not too high before you start it. If the issue continues then you must visit a Citroen dealership or a certified mechanic to fix the issue.

Dead Battery

The most common reason for the key fob being inoperative on your Berlingo is the battery in the coin is dead. The button cell battery within the key is easy to replace, but you must make sure that you are using the correct voltage and size battery. A battery that isn't compatible could cause damage to the circuit board. A dead battery for a coin-cell could also disable anti-theft. This is a safety measure that stops the engine from being started without the physical key.


If the key fob still doesn't respond to the lock button even after replacing the battery it could be that the receiver module has failed and not communicating with other modules in your vehicle. This can be detected using an OBDII scan tool.

If the key fob still not responding, try reprogramming. To do this, follow the directions in the manual for your owner. After it has been reprogrammed, the device should work perfectly.

Diagnostics of a fault

Citroen Berlingo owners are generally satisfied with the vehicle's reliability. As with all vehicles it is possible for faults to occur. A dead key fob is one of the most frequent issues. Fortunately, it is simple to diagnose and can be fixed within a matter of minutes. Other problems that can arise could be caused by a worn or damaged button or a water damage to an electronic chip, signal interference or a remote keyless system receiver module that has developed a fault.

It is important to remember that not all key fob batteries are made equal. Some batteries are made of inferior materials that could damage your remote or other electronic components. When replacing the battery, only make sure the replacement battery is of the same type and voltage as the original. Also, ensure the new battery is inserted correctly. When inserting the battery into the slot, ensure that the positive (+) face of the battery is facing upwards.

If you notice an indicator light on your car's dashboard which appears like an exclamation mark, this indicates that your vehicle is detecting problems with its electric power-assisted steering. If this warning illuminates during driving, it is recommended that you seek help from a certified mechanic or Citroen Berlingo (incl Multispace) dealership.

Radio Interference

If your key fob isn't working all of a sudden it could be a result of radio interference. This issue can be caused by devices that operate on the same frequency as a remote control. Some wireless security systems, such as LED lights aftermarket, can interfere with RF signals. If you have any of these at home, try moving them to another room to see if this helps.

In addition to devices that utilize the same frequency, there are also environmental factors that can hinder the operation of a key fob. For instance, metal objects could interfere with the signal's strength. The weather's rain can also cause the antenna of the fob to bend, which can result in a weaker signal. In some instances the key fob might not respond to radio signals, even if it is close to the vehicle.

To make sure that your key fob is in good health, check the battery. The battery must be in good condition and the contacts should not be affected by corrosion. The Keylab that are damaged by corrosion are an important reason for key fobs not responding to radio signals. A drained battery can also cause the fob to malfunction. If you replace the battery but the problem persists, it's possible that the antenna is damaged. A locksmith can examine the keyfob and make repairs.
