Hi,
I have two keys to my Seat Leon (2013 years model).
one of the keys stopped working (the other works so it is definitely the fob).
the LEDs blink when I tried to press the buttons. I changed the battery and that did not help. even tried switching the battery with the other (working) fob. nothing works.
tried to sync the key by opening the door manually while pressing the "open" button (to sync). did not work either.
So I am running out of ideas.. seems like the fob is just broken...
the dealer wants more than 300 euro to fix it (making a new replacement fob).. seems a bit much I think...
so I have two more ideas:
1. buy a fob online (from a junkyard) and reprogram it with my OBDeleven.
Does anyone know if this is at all possible? how would I go about to do that?
2. buy a fob and desolder any chip that holds the codes or whatever and transfer it to the replacement fob. or alternatively to find where the error is on my fob and fix it (might be something simple if I am lucky)...
any advice?
fob part number: 5F0959752B
