Skoda Octavia Hybrid Key Fob Issue
Summary of the thread
The 2023 Skoda Octavia Hybrid owner experienced issues with the electronic key, including a 'key battery low' warning, malfunctioning keyless access, and difficulty in locking or unlocking the car. The problem was suspected to be due to a low battery in the key fob. After replacing the battery, the key fob functioned correctly, resolving the keyless access issue and eliminating the error messages.

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€.

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.
