How We Solve Citroën Key and Lock Problems

We combine specialist knowledge of PSA/Citroën immobiliser systems with modern tools to provide a quick, non-destructive solution wherever possible.

• Non-destructive vehicle entry

  • We use professional lock-picking and air-wedge techniques to open your Citroën without damage in the vast majority of cases. On rare occasions where drilling or component removal is unavoidable (e.g., severely damaged locks), we explain the options and costs first.

• Citroën car key replacement and cutting

  • We cut high-accuracy blades on-site, including laser cut car keys for newer Citroën models. If you have no original, we can usually create a key from your vehicle’s locks or immobiliser data.

• Citroën key programming with dealer-level equipment

  • We perform transponder key programming and remote key programming using OBD2 diagnostics or, when required on certain models, advanced EEPROM/ECU procedures. This covers:
    • Transponder key programming for bladed and flip keys
    • Smart key programming for keyless entry/push-to-start models
    • ECU/immobiliser programming after module replacements or all-keys-lost scenarios

• Fault diagnosis for “key not detected” and remote issues

  • We test fobs, replace key batteries, repair or replace damaged key fobs, and check central locking systems. If needed, we can re-synchronise or reprogram the key and vehicle.

• Broken key extraction and ignition/lock repairs

  • We handle broken car key extraction from doors or ignition, as well as car ignition repair if your barrel is worn or seized. Steering lock and door lock repairs are also available.

• Van and commercial Citroën support

  • Berlingo, Dispatch, and Relay vans receive the same fast, on-site service—ideal for tradespeople and fleet vehicles that can’t afford downtime.

Citroën Immobiliser Systems Explained Simply

Most modern Citroëns use a transponder chip inside the key or a smart/proximity fob. When you start the car or press the start button, this chip “talks” to the immobiliser in your car’s ECU to confirm you have the right key. If there’s a mismatch or the key isn’t programmed, the car won’t start. Our dealer-level diagnostics allow us to safely pair new keys, add spares, or carry out all-keys-lost programming without towing your vehicle to a main dealer.

FAQs: Citroën Keys And Locks

Can you make a new Citroën key without the original?

Yes. In most cases we can create a new Citroën key without the original by decoding the lock or reading immobiliser data, then cutting and programming a new key. This is part of our mobile service, so no dealership visit or towing is required.

My Citroën says “key not detected”. What should I do?

First, replace the key battery if you have a spare to hand. If that doesn’t help, the issue could be with the key’s transponder/remote circuit or the vehicle’s antenna/immobiliser system. We can diagnose and fix this on-site, including re-synchronising or programming a new key if needed. See also our help on a key fob not working.

Are Citroën keys programmed via OBD2 or do you need EEPROM?

Many Citroëns allow safe key programming via OBD2. On certain models and all-keys-lost scenarios, we may need EEPROM or ECU immobiliser programming. We’ll choose the safest, most efficient method for your specific model and year, and explain it clearly before starting.

Will you damage my Citroën when unlocking it?

We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a lock is already damaged or a rare exception applies, we’ll explain the situation and agree the best route before proceeding.

Can you help with Citroën vans like Berlingo, Dispatch, and Relay?

Absolutely. We provide the same rapid service for Citroën vans, from emergency unlocking to key replacement and programming—ideal for trades and fleet users who need minimal downtime. You can also view our dedicated van and commercial locksmith service.

How long does it take to get a working Citroën key?

Many jobs are completed in a single visit, often the same day depending on your location and key type. Times vary with model, key type (bladed vs smart), and whether all keys are lost. We’ll advise an accurate timescale when you contact us.
