5 Citroen Replacement Key Lessons Learned From The Professionals
Citroen Dispatching Remote Key Replacement

From 1997 onwards, Citroen vehicles used keys that did not use a transponder (chip). Keys of this type can be programmed on site without the need for specialist equipment.

If your key fob's not working it could be due to a variety of different reasons, such as worn buttons, damaged battery contacts water damage, or even problems with the receiver module.

Fault Diagnosis

Fault diagnosis is a process that determines the root cause of a problem, ensuring that corrective actions can be initiated. This is usually called fault isolation and is a vital component of automation of operations management systems. It includes three steps that include detection, localization and estimation.

Common methods for fault detection make use of simulation to identify the possible responses a test could have in the event of different faults, and then record these expected results in a database. Then, after the test is conducted, the actual results of the experiment are compared with the expected results. If the actual results are in line with one of the expected results, then the fault is identified. The process of identifying mistakes is typically iterative and described as a diagnosis tree.

The remote for your car can get out of the vehicle's sync which can result in it not working correctly. This can be easily fixed by an experienced mobile technician who has the right equipment, which will save you the expense of a dealership service. Technicians can utilize a special tool to activate the remote plip on your Citroen, making it work in good order and working with the vehicle. This is an easy and quick process that can be completed in just five minutes. You can repeat this for a second plip, in case your first one doesn't work.

Dead Coin Battery

The most common reason for keys that are not locking or unlocking is a dead coin battery. The button cell battery within the key fob is held in place by metal retaining clips. As time passes the clips will get weaker and looser. Replace the battery you have used with a new one that has the same voltage, size and specification. Also, ensure that the metal retainer clip is fitted correctly as incorrectly replacing a button cell battery can cause damage to the internal electronic chip.

Key Fob Faulty

There are many things that could go wrong with your Citroen remote key. It could be caused by a damaged transmitter or an inactive battery. There could be loose parts rattling around inside of the fob and the lights may not be functioning. In such cases, you will require an auto locksmith for assistance in fixing the issue.


A remote car key (also known as a smart key) incorporates a transponder device inside the head of the key that communicates with the immobiliser system of your car and permit it to start when you insert the key into the ignition. Keys that are popular with customers because they are convenient and reliable. They are also durable and can be dropped, squeezed, or scattered around, as opposed to the old flip keys which are now discarded.

It is important to keep in mind that if your car key does not start your vehicle it is most likely an immobiliser in your car and not the actual key. Replacing the key isn't enough and it has to be changed by an auto locksmith who has the right equipment. This will require a new transponder chip to be programmed into the key, so it works with the car and is able to open and lock it at a distance without having to physically touch the lock on the door.

Faulty Receiver Module

The remote keyless system receiver module is what allows the key fobs to communicate with your vehicle. If you have checked that the batteries for your coin are working and reprogrammed the key fobs, but they aren't working it could be due to the receiver module.
