Any ideas about central locking on an 02 Clio Expression?

Both the keys for my clio have started playing up and dont always open or lock my car. I got a new battery put in one however its still a bit hit or miss!





However when i lock my car using the actual key it doesnt lock all the doors - i found this a touch strange as it has remote central locking so why isnt the central locking working? The button inside to lock the doors works fine so im baffled as to why its not working.





Has anyone had this problem or know whats causing it and how to repair it? Advice on the keys would be great as well.





Thanks|||Most car companies use the driver's door lock as a switch for the central locking.


Renault don't - they fit a separate switch on the dashboard (probably low on the central console, has a picture of a padlock on it).


Therefore, if you lock/unlock the car with the key, you only lock or unlock that one door. You need to use the internal switch or the remote to operate the central locking.|||It may be as simple as the key fob battery needs changing. But being that both keys don't work you should just take it to the dealer and they will sort it. Normally its a prob with the setting of the car security electrcs. All they will do is reset it for you and it should work fine.





French cars eh
