To reset the key fob of a Renault Scenic, start by sitting in the car with all doors closed. Insert the key card into the ignition and turn it to the "On" position without starting the engine. Press and hold the unlock button on the key fob for about 10 seconds, then release it. Finally, turn the ignition off and test the key fob to ensure it is functioning correctly.
If your Renault Laguna won't start with the key card despite the radio and door locks functioning, it may indicate a problem with the key card itself, such as a dead battery or a faulty transponder chip. Additionally, there could be an issue with the vehicle's immobilizer system, preventing it from recognizing the key card. Try using a spare key card if available, and if the problem persists, consult a professional mechanic or a Renault dealership for further diagnosis.
my be the card-reader inside the car
The best way is to buy one from a main stealers - when ours went we found it cheaper & easier to pay the £150 for a brand new one, they also cut the emergency key in the price. You can get cheaper cards from eBay etc but the problems start with finding an auto locksmith with the right equipment to program it for your car. Shop around the main dealers though as we found the price varied by almost £30 depending on who wanted the sale most.
Not sure if this works the same way as the Megane, but here goes. Put your key card in the ignition slot and press start. Do not press the clutch or brake. Press and hold in the button at the end of the light stalk for about 5 seconds, or untill it bleeps twice. This should re activate the auto lights. Well at least it worked for me
To take apart a Renault Laguna key card, start by using a small flat-head screwdriver to gently pry open the seam along the edge of the card. Carefully work your way around to avoid damaging the casing. Once opened, you can access the internal components, including the battery, which can be replaced if necessary. Reassemble the card by snapping the two halves back together securely.
