Remote Control Key
A key fob is a small device that allows you to unlock and lock your car via the internet. It can also start the engine and use some of its electrical components. In some instances the remote control key can stop working due to an issue with the car's electronic system. If this happens you can reset your key using an OBDII scanner.
A dead battery will typically cause a key fob to stop working. If you replace the old battery with a modern model, and the key fob still doesn't function, the problem isn't with the battery. Make sure to replace the battery with a new one that's the exact same size as well as voltage and type as the original.
A key fob may malfunction due to water damage. If the fob was exposed to clean tap or rainwater then you should be able to revive it by cleaning the chip with alcohol and isopropyl and letting it dry completely prior to replacing the battery. If the fob was exposed to salty or soapy water, you'll need to purchase a replacement.
Keyless Entry Key
The Fabia was Skoda’s first mainstream model and was its smallest. Over the course of three generations, its combination of space and value with quality has seen it go from being the subject of numerous car jokes to a major part of the VW Group.
The fourth generation of the Fabia has a more mature design and features more practical equipment. There are also two USB-C ports in the front of the car as well as a 12-volt outlet under the dashboard. The glove box is large and it's big enough to accommodate two large bottles in the back.
The Fabia is a compact car which comes with a variety of safety features. These include lane assist, driver alert and hill hold control. It also has a number of airbags and remote central locking. There's even a feature that can activate the alarm and flash lights in the event that you've left keys in the ignition, or if you accidentally open the door with the key fob.
If you're not able to lock or unlock your Fabia using the key fob, it could be due to a dead coin battery. Replace a battery that is drained with one that is the same size, voltage and specification. If the remote does not work it could be due to an issue with the receiver module. This can be verified with an OBD scan tool.
Key Fob
You can fix your car key fob if it stops working. Depending on the reason for the issue, it could be necessary to replace the battery or reprogram the remote system receiver module. You can also use a metal key that's built into the fob. If this does not work, you may need to take your car to the dealer to have repairs.
The most frequent reason for a key fob's ability to not function is a dead battery. The transmitter portion of the key fob contains the flat disc battery (CR2025 or the CR2032). It's easy to swap it out - open the key fob by levering off the front of the transmitter part with a screwdriver within the area marked by an arrow. Take off the battery that is flat, and replace it with another one. Make sure that the positive side is facing up.
The key fob features metal retaining clips that hold the battery in place and complete the circuit. If they're loose it could result in an issue with the contact and block the remote from receiving commands. Verify the battery's contact points using a multimeter or a voltage meter to ensure they're in good condition. If not, the issue is most likely with the transmitter module or the electronic chip. You could try reprogramming the keyless entry system receiver module by using an OBDII scanner.
