why won't my Renault Laguna 1.9i 2002 car start (it uses a card key)?

I have a renault laguna 1.9i, 2002. Haven driven the car an hour ago, nothing seemed wrong. However, having now returned to the car, I put the card key in the slot and pressed the ignition button, there is no response, no lights on the dash-board, nothing. Why?

If card is definitely not damaged and battery is good, try the following:
Take the card reader out. Place the card in the reader and squeeze the body of the reader. If this gets things working, then place some packing above card reader when replacing to keep the pressure. This worked for me.

it might be as fault with the reader
remove the reader and take plug out then replace plug and try it again
