Skoda Octavia Hybrid Key Fob Issue

I am experiencing issues with the electronic key of my 2023 Skoda Octavia Hybrid. I am getting a 'key battery low' warning. The keyless access no longer works, an error is stored in the error memory, and unlocking or locking the car is difficult. Could the fob battery really be the issue?

I had something similar happen with my Peugeot. Keyless entry stopped working, and the car kept throwing up a 'key not detected' message. It was intermittent at first, then became constant. Have you tried the spare electronic key to see if it's the same issue? Could help narrow things down.

I only have one electronic key. Did changing the battery in your key fob resolve your issue?

Yeah, changing the battery fixed it for me. Though, after swapping the battery I still kept getting the error. The dealership suggested that the fault memory should be cleared. So, if replacing the battery doesn't work, maybe you need to go to the workshop.

Thank you for the information. I replaced the key battery and the key fob is working correctly again. The keyless access is back, and I no longer get any errors. The whole repair was 37€.
