I purchased my Laguna ('96) a few months back and have only now noticed that the second key fob does not operate the central locking etc. I recall the chap that sold it to me saying he had changed the battery and am assuming that he never recoded it to the car.
Anyone know how I do this? Is it one of the fun one's whereby you have to turn the key left right etc...?
Glad I could help.
I also have details of how to programme
Megane RF reprogramming
Megane with early remote
Clio II Kangoo Master IR Reprog
Clio II Kangoo Master RF Reprog
Lag II Safrane II RF reprog
If anyone is stuck
hi i need help programming the keys for my 97 megane. i let the battery run down in both of my keys and i'm now in the ¤¤¤¤ cos the renault garage is shut til mon.
Mike, could you please let me know how to reprogramme my Kangoo keyfobs (2000 865 Kangoo van). Bought it today and the keyfobs light up but doesnt lock the doors.
yes mine is a card that I found inside the car. (see other topic)
it would be nice to get it working without spending too much money.
I'll have to ask what the dealer asks for it.
hi mike i tried what you said but the button doesn't do what you said, it pushes side to side depending left to lock and right to unlock. i held the button down for over 5 secs but nothing happens. is there a reason for this?
Just had an Autoelectricial to the van and he plugged in this fancy gadget (that reads data from the ecu) into a clip above passenger footwell - still could not reprogramme keys
Hold the remote control button down for longer than 10 seconds (until
the red tell tale light on the key extinguishes) then press it again 3
times. Check that the doors lock and unlock correctly.
MEGANE WITH EARLY REMOTE (LED SWITCHES OFF WHEN HOLDING
BUTTON DOWN)
1. Igniton ON
2. Press and hold the central locking button for 5 seconds
3. LED on the dash board will go off, come back on and begin to flash.
The flashes correspond to the first digit of the 4 PIN security code
release the button when the first digit has been "flashed" and then
press the button again.
4. Wait for the second digit to be "flashed" then release and re-press
the button continue until all digits have been entered.
5. If you have entered the code correctly the LED will then go out and
the car can be started to code the remote, switch off the ignition and
press the central locking button again.
6. Press remote button 2 times within the immediate vicinity of the
pick up (in the roof). On some vehicles you may need to switch the
ignition back on to achieve this however.
how do you know when each digit has been done cos i was sat the holding in the button for ten minutes? also the icon on the dash that looks like a spring started flashing.
Hiya mate, is there any chance u could help me? I've got a 2000 Laguna Sport, its the model with RF remote locking. The problem i'm getting is that the fob only works when the Drivers door is open, I did manage to get the fob working by going in throught the front passenger door and lockin it from inside, then i aimed the key through the window at the drivers door, the hazards flashed, doors unlocked, and it was fine then until i went away from the car. There are new batteries in the both fobs. I've spoke to a fitter at my local Renault dealership and he reckons my ECU is the problem. Do u have any ideas?

Hello guys, i'm new to this forum and been reading carefully your posts on this subject. There seems to be quite a bit of confusion here. I have the original service/technical manual cd´s from Renault and it cover´s all cars till 2004. The manual states that the procedures above is for re-sinchronising the remotes only! Is thr frequency is alredy programed in the car and the remote goes out off sync with it. It is NOT for peogramming a new remote frequency in to the car. The ONLY way to do it is with the diagnostic computer at Renault or a dealer that has one. You can onle program 2 remotes at once. As for programing the car to acept a new key (transponder chip) it can ONLY be done on the diagnostic computer too, and you can program up to 4 keys, witch is kind of dumb IMHO as if you shoud be alowed to program 4 remotes as well. So that saied you can buy a key on e-bay (will save you about £90) but you still have to spend some to get the car programmed to the key.
Cheers.
Note: this is for RF fobs, i dont know if it´s the same for IR ones
