Luckily, these problems are easily addressed with just a few steps.
A dead battery in the coin is the most common reason for a key fob that won't lock or unlock. It can be replaced in just a few minutes. If the key fob was uncovered to a clean water or light rain, it should still be fine. However, submerging it into seawater or soapy or dirty water could cause damage to the internal chip. In this scenario you should clean it using a towel and isopropyl alcohol before replacing the battery.
To replace the battery in your key fob turn the key part of the key off and pull upwards on the cover with your thumb nail or a flat-head screwdriver. Take out the old CR2025 battery and replace it with a brand new one and with the polarity pointing exactly the same way as the previous battery.
Key fob does not lock or unlock the doors
There are several possible reasons that you aren't able to lock or unlock the doors with your key fob. First, double-check to make sure that all the doors and trunk (boot) are shut. Your vehicle will inform you that the doors are closed by displaying an indicator light or by humming.
Interference is a different reason for why your key fob may not work. This could occur when other transmitters are near or you're near objects that block the signal. Try using a spare key to test whether this method works.
If your key fob has been exposed to water, you should immediately take it off and clean it. This will stop the chip from corroding, and ensure it receives a continuous supply of power. If the battery is faulty you can replace it with another battery that has the same dimensions and voltage. Connect the battery's terminals, and then test again the key. This will restart all the on-board electronics.
Dead coin battery
If your key fob isn't locking or unlocking the doors the most likely reason is a dead coin battery. It's fixable in just a few moments and find replacement batteries at any auto parts store. Replace the battery with a similar one in size, voltage, and specifications. You should also clean any electronic components that are exposed with isopropyl alcohol or electronic cleaner to avoid water damage. If you expose the chip inside your Seat Ibiza's key to soapy or salty water, it can be fried.
If you notice that the key fob is becoming less effective at locking and unlocking doors, it could be a sign that the battery has drained out.

A faulty receiver module in the seat ibiza key can be the most common cause of issues with key fobs. This problem can be caused by a variety of factors, including a dead coin battery, signal interference or a defective electronic chip in the key fob. The immobilizer system checks that the key is in good working order and disables the engine if a non-compatible message is detected.
If your key fob was exposed to water, you should remove the battery first, and clean the electronic component with isopropyl or an electronic cleaner. After you have cleaned the electronic component let it dry completely before replacing the battery.
