Lishi Renault - does it work on Laguna/Megane 3?

[p1et]

Hello,

I got Megane 2009 lost card and locked. I don't have 'Laguna 3' Lishi, I have only for older Renault, but I think it will open the lock but not decode. Am I right or wrong? Fast answers very appreciated! :)

Is it megan or laguna? you cant use laguna 2 in 1 ,in megan lock!, if its megan, the key way from 2003-2010 are same, i have used 2in in 1 in megan 2007 to open the car, but didnt decode since the owner had the code inside the car. It took me ages to open the door,till i increased alot of tension, and it opened in no time.
btw - this car was dead locked!

Megane 2009, black card 4 buttom. I just came back from car without success in opening it, as the lock turns but the door won't open. Seems like a clutch working on. The lock turns 180 degree. I will get key code.

I'm sure I saw here on DK that somebody wrote that it's possible to open laguna3/megane3 with lishi for old card system and that's why I didn't buy new lishi tool specially for Laguna 3 but after today I can't say it's true.

Can you do a favor for me? Please measure both blades and tell me if they are the same. I will have key code tomorrow but I don't have the new shaped blade so I want to try cut on old one.

[simaservis1108]

They are 100% identical.

I have key code like: 723832. How to covert that for a cuts?

[totalkey]

This is The cuts, Just open instacode and You will see

[p1et]

Ah, so this is that series 1234567HQ? I see when I put in viper '723832' it found that series. Also I managed to run 2010 instacode and I see the same. Thanks. Will report later if it worked.

One more question: Do I have to reverse those cuts when putting into machine or it will work straight? I'm asking cause I have 50km to the car and want to be sure today I will do the job :D.

Dealer code often has 8 digits. Take the first 6 digits and reverse to get the bitting. e.g. Dealer code 34213463 = bitting 431243

I got straight cuts from dealer, no need to reverse. BUT! The lock was spinning 360 degrees with a key O_o. I opened the car using wire and coded new card...

[simaservis1108]

Lock spinning 360 degrees is the protection mechanism,when wrong key is inserted.

[p1et]

I had 2 keys. One cut as the dealer code and 1 as reverse of that code. The wrong key doesn't turn at all.

is not the same...i have lishi for megane 2, and had to do a fluence 2012 all keys lost. It Works well to open the car, but decoding is wrong

356969THE LAGUNA 2 IN 1, this tool will need to read this upside down, with cars lhd. Maybe with rhd, it would be easier.
I prefer the laguna3 tool. You can read this from the top, looking down.
But a laguna 2-1 tool, will give a correct read out for sure.


laguna 2-1 has 2 levers.
laguna 3 has i lever.
Renault 2-1 has 1 lever

any of the 3 renault tools , renault , laguna 3 and renault v2 tool will pick each other but the decode is different between phase 2 and phase 3 locks , differences are below ;

Renault A - dont waste your money on this one , this tool wont work in any european lock , this was made for 1 overseas lock never seen in europe

Renault - this was the very first tool ever released for renault phase 2 locks , but the decode was upside down , this is a 5 height lock

Renault V2 - this replaced the renault tool for all phase 2 vehicles , this tool decodes both left and right hand drive locks correct side up , this is a 5 height lock

Laguna 3 - this tool is for the phase 3 laguna 3 , megane 3 , fluence etc , the main difference is this has different cut heights as is just a 4 height lock

the difference between laguna 3 and renault v2/renault is the cut heights , so a 5 height phase 2 tool will miss read new phase 3 locks and vice versa as have different cut heights , but all will pick all locks .
