hi, this would be the radio cade, as the imobilisor code for that year and model is much longer, you should be able to get it from your local renault dealer , some charge and some dont its pot luck on that one, or if you have a service book with your car it should be on the first page, also if your lucky pull the radio out as somtimes some people write it on the radio itself.

hi as i'm aware you can only get this from renault, you will have to buy a new key and get them to code it in for you, dont buy a second hand key fob as they will not work , once a key has been coded to a vehicle it cannot be coded to another! Antz..

Apparently you can turn the immobilizer on and off with a manual key.
by holding it in a position and counting the number flashing lights on the dash board or immobilizer LED.
Please let someone else answer this if you have no knowledge of it
Many many thanks

not on a 2001 model you have. that is a phase 2 and you cannot do that on that model, phase one's you can becouse they have an infa red key! yours is a radio frequency key.
