A Renault card that unlocks the immobilizer but does not start the engine.

Model: Renault Megane Megane 2 - Years 2002-2010
Part: Key

In this video, we see a truly ingenious trick by a YouTuber who, on his Renault Megan, had a key card that unlocked the immobilizer (allowing him to enter the car) but did not start the engine. He found a way to start the car anyway. This is a fairly common problem with Renault cars, because the key card, constantly entering and exiting its slot, wears out quickly and the internal reading system eventually can't read it anymore. With a very simple trick, our YouTuber fixed a two-cent coin to the card with tape, restoring its original thickness. And now the car starts.
