Skoda Roomster Keyless Entry Problem

My 2007 Skoda Roomster diesel is acting up! The keyless entry stopped working. I'm getting a 'key battery low' warning. Now I have to manually unlock it, and it's throwing an error. Think it's just a dead key fob battery?

Sounds like a classic low battery issue in your key fob. I had a similar problem with my Roomster. Does the dashboard display a warning message when you start the car?

Yeah, I'm getting a warning on the dash about the key battery. Is it just a simple battery replacement, or is there some special procedure involved?

Confirming that a 'key battery low' warning accompanied by non-functional keyless entry and error codes pretty much screams 'fob battery needs replacing'. I would advise you to book an appointment with your local, trusted, professional workshop. They will replace the battery, clear the error memory, and test the remote key fob for proper operation.

Just got back from replacing the battery in my key fob. Cost me 37€, but everything is working perfectly again! Keyless entry is back and the error is gone. So relieved it was something simple!
