Keys with chips Keys

If your Renault has transponder chips, it will only start when you use the correct key. This helps prevent theft of your car by stopping the engine from starting when an incorrect key is used.

The chip is equipped with an identifier number that matches with the one that is stored in your car's computer system. When you insert your new ignition key, it sends a signal to the immobiliser that then checks to see if the chip's code matches the one stored in the system. If the match is confirmed, then your car will allow fuel flow, turning of the starter motor or whatever else it may need to do.

If the key is unable to send an appropriate signal, or is not recognised by the immobiliser, the car will stop running and enter an emergency lockout mode. It typically takes between three and four minutes. Once this happens you won't be able to drive your vehicle and will require a new key.
