    get a new battery, at least that way, you've got a new battery for a few years whether it fixes the problem or not... sounds like battery tho.
    I had this on my 1.2... the hazards or lights wouldnt even work when being towed home at 3am!! haha! New battery was the answer for me!

    battery, interior lights would work if battery had any juice. check its not flat (obviously) and check the negative side

    ok part 2 of my NO POWAAAAAAR thread

    took me a new battery up tonite, fitted it and all seems well

    put some petrol in as there was non left in the tank (that went all over the floor lol)

    twist the key and it starts to turn over, i was thinking great let it pull tru some petrol and it should start................BUT its a Renault so it decideds it doesnt wanna start, turns over really nice and smooth but refuses to start!!!

    took out the spark plugs and tested every one and they all spark so fook knows whats up with it

    could be somthing stupid like one of the 3 immobilisers i have but i have no idea

    HELLLP
