FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a Renault authentication key?
A Renault authentication key is the security code your radio asks for after losing power, such as after a flat battery, battery replacement, or when the radio has been removed. It is a 4-digit code unique to your radio unit. Once entered, the radio unlocks permanently until it loses power again.
How do I find my Renault authentication key using a VIN?
Enter your full 17-character VIN into the field above and we will retrieve your authentication key from the Renault database instantly. Your VIN is on the windscreen base plate, driver's door sticker, or your V5C logbook. Renault VINs for European models start with VF1; Latin American models typically start with 9FB, 93Y or 8A1.
What is the difference between a radio code and an authentication key?
They are the same thing. Renault uses the term authentication key in some markets and documentation, while radio code or radio unlock code is the more common term in others. Both refer to the 4-digit security code required to unlock the radio after a power loss. If you know it as a radio code instead, the Renault radio code page covers the same 4-digit code for every model.
What is a clave de autenticacion on a Renault?
Clave de autenticacion is the Spanish term for authentication key. It is the 4-digit unlock code for your Renault radio. The quickest way to get it is to enter your 17-character VIN above. Renault VINs in Mexico and Latin America typically start with 9FB, 93Y or 8A1.
Which Renault models does this cover?
This covers all Renault models sold worldwide, including Clio, Megane, Scenic, Trafic, Laguna, Master, Modus, Twingo, Espace, Captur, Kadjar, and ZOE in Europe, plus Kwid, Logan, Sandero, Duster, Oroch, Koleos and Alaskan in Latin America and other markets.
How long does delivery take?
VIN-based authentication keys are delivered instantly in most cases. If the VIN is not found in the database, we process the order manually and email your key, usually within the hour.
What if my authentication key does not work?
Double-check you have entered the code exactly as delivered. If the code still does not unlock the radio, contact us and we will investigate at no extra charge. All codes carry a money-back guarantee.
