Peugeot 206 key fob battery issue

I have a 2007 Peugeot 206 with a diesel engine and 251409 km on the clock. I'm getting a 'key battery low' warning. The keyless access no longer works, and there's an error stored. Unlocking or locking isn't working properly either. I suspect the key fob battery is empty. Has anyone experienced similar issues?

Oh, I know this feeling! I've got a 206 too, and the key fob acted up on me a few months ago. Is it completely dead, or does it sometimes work if you're really close to the car?

It's pretty much completely dead. I have to manually unlock the car with the key. I've tried multiple times, but keyless entry never works. Any ideas?

Yep, sounds exactly like what happened to mine. I tried everything, but in the end, I just went to a workshop. They replaced the key battery, and everything was fine again. Seems like that 'key battery low' warning is pretty accurate!

Thanks for the info! I suspected as much. I'll get the battery replaced. It ended up costing 37€, but that's fine with me!
