This fifth-generation Ibiza, which has been updated is a serious contender for the supermini segment. It competes against the Renault Clio, Peugeot 208 and Ford Fiesta.

With a thumb nail, or a small screwdriver with a flat-headed head (A) lift upwards the key fob compartment cover (B). Replace the coin battery CR2025 by ensuring it is fitted in the correct direction and in the right polarity.

Dead Coin Battery

The most common reason for a key fob to not lock or unlock your car is due to a dead coin battery. It will usually show symptoms before it dies such as a decreasing range or no power at all. It is easy to replace it with a new one (CR2025) from a local supermarket. You should be aware that using the wrong or non-compatible batteries can damage your key fob. Make sure that the battery you purchase is the same size, specification and voltage as the old one.

If your fob has been exposed to clean water, like rainwater or soapy tap water It is probable that corrosion has caused damage to the chip's electronic components. You can clean the chip using isopropyl or electronic cleaners to determine if that aids, but the chip is damaged.

The simplest solution is to get an entirely new key fob. They are available at most major car dealers and can be fitted by an experienced mechanic. They can also be bought on the internet through sites like ebay. It is recommended to work on a work surface that has good lighting. This makes it easier to work on the small parts inside. This will also allow you to avoid putting things back in the wrong location. Always work on the key fob in a secure and safe space.

Water Damage

You may think your key fob is lost if you drop it into an unintentional pool or accidentally wash it. But there's still hope. The problem is when the circuit board inside the fob comes into contact with water - it creates an excellent conductor, and it shorts out the components. It also accelerates the process of corrosion and rust.

This is an easy solution. Find something absorbent, and place it inside the fob - a paper towl or tissue can be used. Then apply a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl ethanol to wipe down the circuit board and other components to clean out any battery acid residue or contamination. Let the fob dry out for several days in a dry, warm environment.

Replace the battery after the fob has dried out with a new one with the same size and polarity ('+' (pointing upwards). The fob isn't easy to open to get to the battery, but If you have a flat-head screwdriver in your toolbox, it should be easy to slide in. After the fob is rebuilt, it should operate as normal. If it isn't working it may be necessary to re-program it or replace the module.

Radio Interference

If a key-fob is functioning properly, it emits a radio frequency signal, which is interpreted by the receiver module inside your car. However, if the signal is distorted in any way, your key fob won't function as expected. This can be caused by objects or weather conditions, or other transmitters that operate at the same frequency as your vehicle.

In this situation it is recommended to replace the battery in your key fob. It is recommended to replace your key fob's battery.

Some aftermarket LED lighting that uses the same frequency as the remote key fob may interfere with the signal and block it from reaching the receiver modules. The LED light must be turned off or switched to a different frequency in order to be able to avoid interference.

If you've got a new battery in your key fob, and the problem persists, it's likely that the antenna on your key fob is damaged or has stopped working. This is significant since the antenna is responsible for transmitting a signal from the key fob to the receiver module. Utilizing an OBDII scanner will aid in identifying the issue by telling you what is wrong with the system. The scanner will ask to provide information about your vehicle including the model, make engine type, VIN number.

Faulty Receiver Module

The key fob features a receiver module that sends signals for locking and unlocking. All on-board electronic components will cease functioning if this component develops a problem. If this happens then reprogramming the module using an OBDII scanner or replacing the key fob itself may assist.

There are a number of possibilities for the cause of this problem that could be the cause, such as an empty coin battery, water damage, or signal interference. Try resetting the on-board computer by disconnecting the 12 volt battery for 15 minutes. This will drain any residual electrical energy that could be causing problems. The cable should be removed first from the negative terminal, then from the positive terminal. After 15 minutes, reconnect your battery in reverse order. First, positive and then negative second.

The internal chip inside the key fob can also be damaged by dirt or water. If your key quit working after it got wet, wash the electronic component with isopropyl ethanol or an electronics cleaner before reinstalling the battery. If it stopped working after exposure to soapy or salty water the chip is likely damaged and needs to be replaced.

Another possibility is an inoperable antenna module fuse that transmits the signal to lock or unlock to the vehicle. The fuse could be found in various places, based on the model. For example, it could be under the rear seat car key replacement, or in the trunk, or the side of the dashboard.(Image: https://www.thekeylab.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/sb-instagram-feed-images/311135906_1281855972636056_2987376612771239945_nlow.jpg)
