How to Temporarily Disable the Immobiliser on Renault Twingo

Model: Renault Twingo Twingo 1 - Years 1993-2007
Part: Key

What to do if the red light on the Twingo is flashing and the car won't start? We will see it in this video. Insert the key into the ignition without turning it, and hold down the unlock button on the remote (the one that opens the doors). While holding the button, turn the key to the ignition position (the one where the dashboard lights up), but do not start the engine. Continue to hold for ten seconds, then release the button: turn off and return to "0", then remove the key from the ignition. Wait another ten seconds, reinsert the key, and try to start normally.
