Use a small flat-head screwdriver or a thumbnail (A) to remove the battery compartment cover on the seat arona key fob (B). Replace the coin battery CR2025 by ensuring it is in the correct direction and polarity.

Dead Coin Battery

A dead battery on a coin is the most common cause of a key fob that isn't locking or unlocking your car. After it has died, you will see an increase in range, or no power. It is easy to replace it with a new (CR2025) one from a local retailer. You should be aware that using the wrong or non-compatible batteries can damage your key fob. Be sure that the battery you replace has the same size and voltage, and that it is the same specification.

If your device was exposed to clean water, such as rain or soapy tap water, it is likely that the chip inside has been damaged due to corrosion. You can clean the chip with isopropyl or electronic cleaners to see if it helps, but it's likely that the chip is fried.

A new key fob is the most straightforward solution. Most major car dealers offer key fobs and they can be installed by a seasoned mechanic. They can also be purchased on the internet from sites like ebay. The best thing to do is to work on a flat surface that has adequate lighting. This makes it easier to work on small parts inside. This also helps you to avoid placing anything back into the wrong place. Always work on the key fob in a secured and safe area.

Water Damage

You may think that your key fob is damaged if you drop it in the pool or accidentally wash it. There's a chance. If the circuit board inside the fob is exposed to water, it turns into a conductor that shorts out the components. It also accelerates corrosion and rust.

Luckily, this is simple to fix. Find something absorbent and place it inside the fob - a paper towl or tissue work well. Then you can use a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol to wipe down the circuit board and other components to remove any battery acid residue and contamination. The fob should dry for a few days in a warm and dry environment.

When the fob has been drained and the battery is replaced with another one of the same size and polarity ('+' that is pointing upwards). It isn't easy to open up the fob to access the battery but if you have a small screwdriver with a flat head that you have at hand, it will be able to insert easily. Once the fob has been reassembled it should function as normal. If it doesn't, then you'll require reprogramming it or replace the receiver module.

Radio Interference

When a keyfob is working properly, it sends out a radio signal that is absorbed by a receiver module in your vehicle. If the signal is not received the key fob will not work. This can be caused by objects, weather conditions, or other transmitters operating on the same frequency in close proximity to your vehicle.

This can cause your key fob to not be able to activate the car's systems such as the ignition switch or security system. In this case it is recommended to replace the battery inside your key fob.

Some LED lighting aftermarket that utilizes the same frequencies as a remote control key fob could interfere with the signal, stopping it from reaching receiver modules. To avoid interference, the LED light should be turned off or switched to another frequency.

If you've got a new battery on your key fob but the issue persists, it is likely that the key fob's antenna is damaged or not functioning properly. The antenna is responsible for transmitting signals between the key fob and the receiver module. The OBDII scanner is able to assist in diagnosing the problem by revealing what's wrong with the system. The scanner will request details about your particular vehicle like the make and model as well as the engine type and VIN number.

Faulty Receiver Module

The key fob contains the receiver module which transmits the signals for lock and unlock. All electronic components on board will cease to function if this module develops a problem. If this is the case, reprogramming with an OBDII scanner or replacing the key fob itself could help.

There are a few possibilities for the cause of this problem that could be the cause, such as an empty coin battery, water damage, or signal interference. You can reset the onboard computer if you disconnect the 12 volt batteries for 15 minutes. This will drain any remaining electrical energy that could cause issues. Remove the cable first from the negative terminal, then the positive terminal. After 15 minutes, connect your battery in reverse order. First, positive, then negative, and finally negative.

The internal chip inside the key fob can also be damaged by dirt or water. If your key fob stopped working after being wet, wash it using isopropyl or an electronic cleaner. Then, reinstall the battery. If it has stopped working after exposure to soapy or salty water the chip may be damaged and must be replaced.

A defective fuse for the antenna module could also be the reason. It's the fuse that sends an electronic signal to the vehicle to lock or unlock. The fuse may be located in several places, depending on the model. For example it could be beneath the rear seat ibiza key fob, or in the trunk, or the side of the dashboard.
