"Leave drivers door open"!??????
Long shot here but from my Xantia manual:-
"After three attempts the keypad operation will be blocked. To free the keypad switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute. Switch off the ignition and wait a further 30 minutes for the keypad to be released. A further attempt at entering the security code may be made."
Reading a bit further I come across this
First Programme of the Code
Ignition on enter 1111 press key C enter your personal 4 figure code press C to validate
Try going to Google Groups and doing an advanced group search on this group and the alt.autos.citroen group for "immobiliser" or "code"
