same happened on me mums clio. Was a dodgy sensor.
Don't know if it what's wrong with yours but an angle to look at?

is it possible that the key could have just malfunctioned and it just needs reprogramming, and can you do it yourself

Get in your car
put key in ignition
hold the unlock or lock button
turn the ignition on and wait a few seconds
let go of the button press it again while ignition is on
this shoud sync your key again
this is quite common on vauxhalls, its done it on mine and my gfs mums vectra

mine started doing this on astra , its a pain in the arse because alarm activates even if you lock it with the key, but doent de activate, so every time you open the door it looks like your stealing it with alarm wailing
