Door Locks
The Peugeot 3008 remote key system allows the owner to lock and unlock their vehicle with the press of a button on the key fob. In contrast to the traditional key which has a key hole that is physical the key fob has a hidden electronic copy of the car keys inside.
It does this by using a radio signal that is only transmitted when the key is within some distance from the car. A solenoid inside the door lock transforms the electronic command into an actual mechanical one after the signal has been spotted. This causes a rod to operate the door locks, just as a physical key would.
If you notice that a Peugeot key fob has stopped locking or unlocking the vehicle, there are many possible reasons for the issue. The most frequent reason is the battery is dead.

A certified locksmith can reprogramme your key fob to ensure it is compatible with the vehicle.
Immobiliser
Peugeot were among the first car makers to incorporate an immobiliser chip in a key. This stops the vehicle from starting if it sees an untrue signal being sent from the key to the car. If it's new, this is great, but as they age the chips wear out and cause problems. This usually starts when you see an alert on your dashboard that reads 'anti theft system active or a warning light that says 'immobiliser failure'.

However, a professional mobile locksmith comes with dealer-standard equipment inside their van, meaning they can be there and creating new Peugeot keys at the side of the road or at home, much faster than dealerships are able to.
Generally Peugeot keys begin to experience problems because the key blade wears out. This wear causes the mouth part of the key to stop feeding into the lock correctly, causing more wear on the locks themselves. Sometimes, just swapping a new blade is enough to resolve the problem. It is also possible to have the teeth on the key cleaned to allow them to work more smoothly. This is something only a fully qualified auto locksmith can do but it could save you a lot of trouble and cost in the end.
