Ok guys ( and girls)

I've just about had it with my 406 executive.. I have trawled this newsgroup
(and the Renault one just in case )  for potential fixes to the RF alarm
plipper failure that seems to be common on this model.. I have heard it may
be out of synch but I have tried all suggested remedies such as lockking and
unlocking ten times in a row.. no good... then tried holding doen the
button... no good... in deperation got the roof console out at the weekend
in search of the receiver only to find it wasn't where I expected.. the
Ingra red one is there sure but I suspect the RF one is somewhere else.. I
don't think its with the automatic windscreen wash circuit and you have to
remove the rear view mirror to get to tha and that looked like a one way
trip to the garage.. Not that I doubt that Peugeot could fix it but from
experience problems like this are usually met with a " lets swap every
module on the car till it works and then charge for the lot " approach..
So I have two dead plippers with new batteries and a car that refused to
respond to either . just waiting for the first frost now to freeze the locks
and that will make my year...... any suggetsions welcome.. happy new year !

Take the car and keys back to a GOOD Peugot dealership and ask (INSIST?)
that they recode the system with their computer! I had the same flaky
problems for ages until changing dealerships. Once recoded, I've had no
problems since!
