Remote keyless entry system
The remote keyless entry system of seat ibiza is an excellent feature that allows you to lock or unlock the car with just a press of one button on the key fob. However, there are many reasons why it might stop functioning, including a dead coin battery, water damage, issues with the receiver module, or signal interference. These problems can be fixed with a few simple steps.
The most frequent reason for key fobs not locking or unlocking is a dead battery, which can be replaced in just a few minutes. If the key fob was exposed to a clean tap or light rain it should still work. However submerging it in seawater or dirty or soapy water can cause damage to the chip inside. In this instance you must clean it with a piece of paper towel and isopropyl alcohol prior to replacing the battery.
To change the battery inside your key fob, flip the key part of the key and push upwards on the cover using your thumb nail or a flat-head screwdriver. Remove the CR2025 battery and then insert a brand new one with the polarity facing in the same direction as the old one.
Key fob not locking, or unlocking the doors
If you're not able to lock or unlock your doors with your key fob it could be due to several reasons. First, double check to make sure that all the doors and trunk (boot) are shut. If the doors are open the car will flash an indicator light or sound an alarm to let you know.
Interference is another reason why your key fob might not function. This can happen when there are other transmitters in the vicinity or if objects interfere with the signal. Try using an extra key to see whether this is working.
If you have exposed your key fob to water, take off the battery right away and wash it. This will prevent the chip from corroding and ensure it gets a constant supply of power. If the battery is defective you can replace it with a brand new one that has the same voltage and size. Then, reconnect the battery's connections and test again the key. This will reboot all the on-board electronics.
Dead coin battery
If your key fob isn't locking or unlocking doors, the most likely cause is a dead battery for your coin. It's a simple fix that can be completed within a matter of minutes and you are likely to find replacement batteries at any auto parts store. Make sure to replace the battery with one that's identical in size in voltage, capacity, and specification. To prevent water damage, you must also wash all electronic components that are exposed using isopropyl ethanol or electronics cleaner. The chip in your Seat Ibiza key will be fried if it's exposed to salt or soapy water.
If you notice that the key fob getting more difficult to lock or unlock the doors, it could mean that the battery is failing.
