- You will need a diagnostic scan tool that is compatible with your Peugeot 207, such as a Peugeot Planet 2000 or a generic OBD-II scanner.
- A spare or master key for your vehicle, if you have it.
Step 2: Connect the scan tool to your vehicle:
- Locate the OBD-II diagnostic port in your Peugeot 207. It is usually found under the dashboard, near the steering wheel.
- Connect the scan tool to the OBD-II port. Make sure the connection is secure.
Step 3: Turn on the ignition:
- Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Step 4: Access the immobilizer menu:
- Use the scan tool to navigate through the vehicle's electronic control units (ECUs) until you find the immobilizer menu.
- The exact menu location may vary depending on your scan tool and vehicle model, but it is typically under the "Security" or "Anti-theft" section.
Step 5: Perform the immobilizer reset:
- Follow the on-screen instructions provided by the scan tool to reset the immobilizer.
- This process may involve entering a code or following specific steps to clear the immobilizer memory.
Step 6: Test the immobilizer:
- Once the reset is complete, turn off the ignition and wait a few minutes.
- Try to start the vehicle using your spare or master key. If the immobilizer has been successfully reset, the vehicle should start without any issues.
Important note:
- If the immobilizer reset fails or if you experience any difficulties during the process, it is recommended to consult a professional automotive locksmith or mechanic who specializes in Peugeot vehicles.
