The fob needs to be reset. If this doesn't work, drop into a place that fits car alarms, or if you service at a dealership, they ought to do it for free.
It could be your onboard computer or locking module, as the guy next door had an identical problem on his Megane. A tech came and changed a module then programmed the 'brains'.
i have not tried this myself but i have been reliably informed that it should work on the 99 renaults
With ignition off, press and hold the key fob button, after about 10 seconds the light on the key will stop flashing, press the key fob button three times and if the key will resyncronise it will at this point operate the locking system.
I only saw question now. I've been through the same with my Renault Megane Hatch 2004. 1 card key unlocked but could not start the car; spare key said card not recognised. Renault said I needed new key cards as they don't last forever & they will need to be replaced from time to time. Ordered new key. They said would take 3 weeks to arrive but came in 2. Then needed to be encoded. Was very expensive
this is a white box on the other side of the passangers dash board. lift up the bonnet and disconnect it. that will stop the noise but now your heaters will only get warm instead of hot. its some sort of flap to do with the heater matrix. realy anoying
