How can I tell if my Renault immobiliser is still working?
If you have the first system which is the earlier of the two and was phased out around 1998 a good way to check if the key is still operational (even if the red light comes on) is to point the key at a mobile phone camera and you should be able to see blue light coming from the glass ball on the key.
Is there a bypass code for the Laguna immobiliser?
The laguna can be re-synced in the same way as the megane and the scenic. The laguna immobiliser is bypassed with the code the same way as the megane and scenic on the central locking rocker switch. Thanks for that. I have just gotten two possible bypass codes for my immobiliser from Renault but I am not getting very far with them.
What happens if there is no light on the immobiliser?
If there is no light then the key is usually unsalvageable and would require replacement. If there is light coming out of the key yet it does not start the car it is most likely that the key and the car have gone ‘out of sync’ and will need to be ‘re-phased’.
Why is my immobiliser not working on my Kay?
That is mostly correct except. If there is no blue light when looking through a digital camera view-finder the key is not always unsalvageable as the problem can often be traced to a dry-joint in the kay and is easily fixed. The laguna can be re-synced in the same way as the megane and the scenic.
Why is my car not turning on when I Turn on the ignition?
Of course, if you access the car itself with your key, you likely won’t be able to turn on the ignition because of all those extra tumblers. And on the off chance that you do turn the ignition cylinder, the immobilizer won’t allow you to start the car, because it’s protected by one-in-millions of transponder codes.
What should I do if my ignition switch is not working?
How To Fix It: After ensuring the rest of the electrical system is intact, such as fuses, relays, and circuits, replace the ignition switch. The transponder antenna surrounds the ignition cylinder. If it doesn’t recognize the transponder key, it doesn’t allow the engine to run. https://www.gettyimages.com/license/525320791

What to do if your Renault Clio key is not working?
If the car doesn’t start, before jumping under the bonnet, take 2 mins to look at the immobiliser light. To do this, simply turn the ignition on, let the dash light up with all the other lights, and see what the immobiliser light does. If it flashes rapidly, then there is a good chance that it’s not recognising the car key.
When does the immobiliser light come on on a car?
Next, the correct operation is that when you have a good working key, when you turn on the ignition, that immobiliser light comes on for 1-2 secs, (checking out the key) and then when the car is happy, it will go out for good, allowing the car to start.

Why does my Renault Clio ignition flash red?
In the centre of the dash, a small red dot will flash at regular intervals, (about once a second) when the ignition is off. This simply means that the immobiliser is active, so ‘don’t try and steal me’.
