check the batteries in the remote...

If it isn't the remote batteries -
I know some systems work on a rolling code for the remote. If the Battery has been disconnected, the Car *may* have lost its code. I'd expect there should be a procedure for this in the handbook...Maybe another 406 owner can confirm if this is the case...

There should be a re-synchronizing procedure in the handbook.

If you've tried all the above, please note. I had a problem like this on my Citroen after disconnecting the vehicle battery (the Pug is likely to be similar). After following the instructions in the owner manual for remote re-programming, the problem remained. I tried disconnecting the car battery again and leaving it off for a while, still no go. I gave up and took the car to the Citroen agent who (eventually) decided to download new code to the car. This fixed the problem. This may not be your problem but be warned of the possibility. If you go to a dealer, make sure they don?t start dismantling the dash looking for connection faults and blown fuses as my local dealer did?and charged well for it!
