    Stupid Question time

    I have just bought a Peugeot 306. Its not new, but is fairly decent.

    Anyway, the electronic key fob has two buttons, a large one, towards the front and set slightly to the right - this is the one that opens the doors / boot etc.

    The second, smaller button, is set back and towards the left of the fob - What does this button do? lol

    hi oscar,
    Its probably the immobiliser but you can google 306 keys and it will probably tell you.
    Good luck

          Re: Stupid Question time

          Realistically, I need to get a second fob as well - never know if/when will need it - they are apparently quite straight forward to programme.

          However, time for another stupid question!!

          If I get a new/second fob, does the shape/cut of the key matter - as in is it like a front door key, or just this not matter if it is programmed to the car?

          Hope that makes sense.

            Re: Stupid Question time

            Don't push the button
            It might be the self destruct button

            Like Helmsman said it's probably the immobiliser/alarm
            or it could just be a defunct button on the fob(they use the same key fob on a range of cars, models and spec)

              Possibly, but there is a little red light appears if I do push the smaller button - wont do it again cos I know it CAN deprogramme the key

                Congratulations for now owning a piece of useless French crap.

                Sorry, not a big fan of Peugeots.
