Hi Peter. I suggest you get a second opinion as I have never heard of this before. Though I do know that the Megane key is different to our Laguna ones. Ask on the Renault Forum Site - there are a lot of experts there.

Hi, have a Renault Megane car, trip computer says replace car batteries, did this but message never went away it stayed on the trip computer. Had car serviced and asked them to check my key card, staff said my card was faulty even though it works perfectly well apart from message on trip computer asking me to change battery? Also staff said my spear card would go the same way as I have never used it, I was keeping it safe for emergency use, staff said eventually both cards will de-program. Is this information correct?
Many thanks.

my laguna keycard had broken first it wouldnt lock then 3 months down the line it wouldnt open unless i used 2 hands and squashed and bent the keycard. needless to say i bent it a little too much and it cracked. the the other morning i stuck the card in the ignition and nothing happened apart from the radio coming on and the red light flashing on the dashboard. i troed to take the keycard to bits like it shows in the photo’s. this didnt happen as well as expected ( maybe because it was already cracked) but i am now left waiting for my new key to arrive at a cost of £130 from the local renault dealer.

Thank you, stabbed my thumb with the sharp knife but certainly worth the few drops of blood! Before anyone says anything, yes I am a female! Seriously though, great help - Reanault have extracted enough dosh from me this year.

sometimes it’s just a battery issue, or just old wiring.

Hi there guys . I have two falty keys but being a girlie and not knowing how to use a solering iron etc I dont think I can fix them myself . Would anyone attempt to fix them for say £25 as I cant afford to get a new key again - thanks ?
