Diagnostic check says key is blocked ?

Post by jmacd »

Hi have a peugeot 206 1.4 LX 2001, just purchased this car and the guy I bought it from gave me a new key with receipt with transponder code too. I got an auto electrician who told me the key was blocked, it has not had a bsi unit renewed and my ecu is ok. I telephone a Dundee peugeot dealer who was less than helpfull so this is why I am posting on this forum, can anyone help me what can be done.

I only have one key for the car and its not got buttons on it just a normal key that opens the doors, will turn on ignition but will not start.

Unfortunately you will need to get the car & key to somewhere that can code the key to the car (good diagnostic garage or Peugeot dealer.
If you bought the car from a trader, I would get them involved.
