Never played with one but-
How many wires go into the reed switch.
Is it this thread you looked at. http://www.renaultforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=95135

So is the corrosion inside the connector plug or at the actual switch.
It will depend on which terminals are corroded as to what the problem is.
If the wiring from the plug to the locking motor has a bad connection, you can try to clean it up or as a cheap fix, you could chop the wires either side of the plug and join them. Add a bit of length to the wire if needed.

The thread said the switch is the part circled in the picture below.
That looks like it only has 2 wires.
From the description, it says that the switch is closed when the filler cap is off.
The switch opens when filler cap is replaced and the circuit is broken. This is what you need to allow door to open. Disconnecting one of the wires from the switch should achieve the same end.
Try that and see what happens. You can always reconnect later if it's not the problem.

Soory, missed your post.
I suppose it's a dead box.
Wouldn't know if it can be bypassed.
Found one on ebay europe but you would have to ask if they post to UK

Nothing else comes up showing that part number.
Maybe a UK Renault breakers could help.
