Peugeot began their manufacturing operation in the early 1800s by using kitchen equipment and hand-tools. They soon moved on to umbrella frames and wire wheels, before becoming the first to introduce bicycles and the first to install rubber tires on their vehicles in 1892.
In 1900, they had added cars to their line of production. The first models were reminiscent of carriages that were not steered with a tiller. Peugeot began to produce motorcycles around this time.
Modern Peugeot keys are more intricate than the mechanical metal pieces. There is also an embedded transponder chip that provides additional security features that prevent thieves from hotwiring your car.

If the problem persists you should consult a Peugeot mechanic promptly.
A red warning light that has two cars and a star under a red outline is another common issue. This means that the Peugeot's forward collision detection system is disabled and must be enabled.
Transponder
Before transponder keys was commonplace in cars, it was relatively easy for thieves to take an automobile. They could simply turn the ignition switch to turn on and start the vehicle. This is no longer an option, as modern cars are equipped with an anti-theft security system embedded in the key.
The microchip in the key is a miniature device that has non-volatile (meaning that it will not erase when power is cut) memory. The chip contains an unique number that is used as a "password" for starting the engine. When you insert the key into your ignition, the chip transmits the password to a receiver in the immobilizer of your car. If the code is correct, your car will start and you'll be off to the races.
