Hi

The 405 uses a one button infra red plip / key.

Normally ALL the codes MUST match for the remote plip keys to work.

The code number is located inside the plip on a white sticker & on the infra red locking control unit on a yellow sticker.

You can have as many remote keys as you like for one car, But they are £45 a time from Peugeot, But you do get a FREE key blade cut to your car, as long as you have the keycode ( Another £13 if you dont! )

Shearse, You say you have a 1993 405 estate, Does it have the Peugeot alarm system fitted? There is a serious security flaw in this system that should worry ANY pre airbag equipped 405 owner.

thanks lee

yes is a pre airbag model & yes it has the peugeot alarm system.

i was not aware of any security flaws with it,is it any thing dangerous? i have no real value in the car other than it gets me from A to B (200 k on it now)

Unless you are near a really good Peugeot garage beware! I was quoted megabucks for just the parts to solve the same problem as you have. In end I contacted North London Motors. They sent me both blip keys, the steering lock assembly, and the roof remote receiver from same vintage car for £50 inclusive of vat and postage. Took me just over an hour to fit it all, and it works brilliantly. I live in Ayrshire and I'm sorry to say that I have not come accross a decent Peugeot garage north of the order yet but I live in hope...

You'll be hard pressed to find a good Peugeot garage south of the border as well...........

So if we have the code for the receiver and a new (secondhand) one button key from another car there's no way of programming the two together?

And bye the bye - what was the security flaw referred to above?
