406 hdi keyfob

Feb 12, 2006 9 Replies

I have a year 2000 406 hdi 110.



Looking to purchase a spare key off ebay but am unsure how to tell whether it is an RF or IR one.



Key has two buttons - the large one locks/unlocks and the small one deadlocks... no alarm installed.



Also has a red LED light..



If it is an RF remote, can i program it myself or is it a dealer job?


Thanks in advance

Almost certainly an RF one. IR will have a clear LED at end of the fob where the key starts.

Mail me off list - I have one surplus to requirements.

It's RF - only earlier 90s Pugs used the old IR system.

Yes, established off-list that he has an RF key.

Jim

Not entirely true. My wife's '98 306 has IR.

It appears to be after 1999 they changed to RF.

Jim

That's an earlier 90s Pug, by my rekoning :)
