Van Key. Is it just a question of changing battery? (1 Viewer)

Last night the alarm and thus the lock on our van played up and it took a few goes before it 'chirruped' to indicate the system was on and door locked.
This morning, it repeated it's obstinacy.

Is it just a question of changing the battery or does it somehow need 'coding'

The key coding is not lost with the battery being changed.

Balance of probability is it’s the battery and nothing else…

Nothing to be lost installing a fresh battery as a first step.

Like you, I’ve always been wary of battery changes, so far never had a problem, just put the new one in and away you go

Ours went, turned out just a flat battery, changed it and it was fine

As an aside we'll be at Avon bank with Peugeot diagbox if anyone wants to borrow it.
