How to Replace the Cover of a Peugeot Key with a Flip Key

Model: Peugeot Peugeot Various
Part: Key

Video tutorial

See how to easily replace the cover of a Peugeot key, applicable to nearly all models with a flip key. You can find it on Amazon for £9.90 plus £2.90 for shipping. As shown in the video, simply open it with a small screwdriver and then use the same tool to remove the battery - a CR2032, which can be easily found at any supermarket or newsagent for a few pounds - and place it in the new remote, ensuring the correct polarity.

Next, take the old shell and remove the printed circuit board to place it in the new shell. Now, from the old shell, remove your key; you will need to apply pressure to remove it from the shell.

Do the same to remove the neutral key from the new one. Place your key in the new shell; it requires a bit of patience to refit the pin into the hole. Take the part with the circuit, close it, and the job is done.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
