If you look on this forum there are thousands of posts listed regarding Renault electrical/starting/key fob/misfiring problems. On modern motors it is very difficult to diagnose problems if you don't have the correct code reader/computer to see what faults are stored and also to check what each sensor etc is doing. Also it can activate certain procedures in your electrical system ie, check central locking,operate lighting, key coding etc. Without that it is guess work and that can cost a fortune or another way is to never buy a Renault, just look at the problems listed on here. Good luck.
