citroen dispatch key fob Berlingo Key Fob Troubleshooting

Citroen Berlingo Multispace fills a niche in the market for people carriers. Its sliding rear doors allow it to be squeezed into bay parking spaces and its durable cabin is more robust than many of the more expensive rivals.

If your key fob was submerged in saltwater or soapy liquid It may not work again, even after a new battery and changing the program. This is because the internal chip has been damaged by exposure to water.

Water Damage

Shake your key fob to get rid of as much water as you can. Then, place it with the button facing down and allow it to drain for a couple of minutes while you wipe it clean using a cloth. This will prevent any condensation from causing damage to the electronic chip.

If the warning light on the dashboard that appears like a car, with an image of a key appears on your Mk 2 or Mk 3 Citroen Berlingo then it could indicate an immobilizer issue. This is a security device in the vehicle to prevent thieves from using hotwires. If this is the case you'll have to visit an Citroen dealer or a trained mechanic to address the issue.

A constant on engine warning light could mean that the electric power-assisted steering is not working properly. If this is so, then you need to stop the car and make sure that the pressure in the oil is ok and that the temperature is not too high before you restart it. If the problem persists then you'll need to consult an expert Citroen C1 Replacement Key technician or mechanic to address the issue.

Dead Battery

A dead coin battery is the most frequent reason for your key fob to not function in your Berlingo. The button cell battery that is in the key is very easy to replace, but you must ensure that you use the correct voltage, size and type of battery. An uncompatible battery could damage the circuit board. A dead coin battery can also disable the anti-theft system. This is a security function that prevents the engine from starting without a physical key.

If the key fob still not responding to the lock button despite replacing the battery it could be an unreliable receiver module that is not communicating with the other modules on your vehicle. A scanner for OBDII can detect the issue.

If the key fob isn't responding, you can try reprogramming the key fob. To do this, follow the steps in the manual for your owner. Once it has been reprogrammed, the device should function as expected.

Fault Diagnosis

The reliability of the Citroen Berlingo is generally appreciated by its owners. As with all vehicles there are a few issues that can arise. A key fob that is dead is one of the most frequent issues. Fortunately, it is simple to determine and can be replaced in a few minutes. Other problems that can arise are a worn button or a water damage to an electronic chip, signal interference or a remote keyless system receiver module that has developed an issue.

It is important to know that not all key fob batteries are created equal. Some batteries are constructed from inferior materials and could cause damage to your remote or other electronics. Make sure you use batteries that are of the same type and voltage as the original when replacing the battery. Make sure the new battery fits correctly. When inserting the battery into the slot, ensure that the positive (+) face of the battery is facing towards the upward direction.

If you see an exclamation point in the form of an oval on your dashboard, it is a sign that there is a problem with your vehicle's electric power-assisted driving. If this warning light comes on while you're driving then we recommend that you speak with a certified mechanic at the Citroen Berlingo dealership (incl Multispace).

Radio Interference

Radio interference could be a cause of your key fob not functioning at all. This is a problem that can be caused by devices using the same frequency as remote controls. Some wireless security systems, for instance LED lights sold on the market, can interfere with the RF signal. Move these devices to an alternative location if you've got them in your home.

In addition to devices that use the same frequency, there are also environmental factors that can affect the signal of a car's key fob. Metal objects, for example could interfere with the strength of the signal. Weather conditions can also bend the antenna of the fob, which results in a weaker radio signal. In some instances, the key fob may not be able to receive radio signals, even if it is located near the vehicle.

Examine the battery to confirm the health of your key fob. It must be in good health, and the contacts should be free of corrosion. A corroded contact is a major cause of a key fob that is not responding to the vehicle's radio signals. A depleted battery could cause a fob to malfunction. If the issue continues to persist after replacing the battery the antenna could be defective. A locksmith can examine the keyfob and make repairs.
