you have to wait one minute? this happens all the time or sometimes you can open it?

im asking this because if it works some times maybe you have some wiring problem, with the vibration of the car it makes contact again and works...its a long shot but the problem is not easy to find

Most likely an earth fault since it affects so many things at the same time. There are two earths - remove the plastic trim inside the boot behind the bumper. You will easily see them.
Silver 08 plate 5dr 1.5dci Dynamique 106 Tech Run (re-mapped)

Red 03 plate 5dr 1.9 Dynamique dci120

Best advice for Megane owners: sell it before it bankrupts you!
