  1. Of course, I checked the appearance (flashing) of the "red light" in the key after pressing any button - it is identical to the spare (much less frequently used) key (which works normally)... Thanks to the procedure in the instructions "pairing the key" I manage to "pair" the key with the car to such an extent that I can get into it and start it, but only after removing the lock cover and pulling the key blade out of the remote control housing - I have to open the door with the key blade. I can't imagine driving without this lock cover or putting it on and taking it off every time I get in and out of the car. It makes no sense, the car is only 1 year old! For now, I'm going to an authorized service center to fix this issue, but I'm afraid that they will simply program this non-working key via the computer (via the manufacturer's software that gives access to the computer). What next, when the warranty ends? Drive many kilometers and pay an authorized service center for something as trivial as replacing the battery in the key???
  2. Good day, I use a Skoda Karoq 2023, I have 2 keys with the KESSY system. The main key I use showed symptoms of a dead battery: a problem with opening the car doors and trunk. I replaced the battery in the key exactly according to the car's user manual available on the website, i.e. by performing a "reset" (pressing any button on the remote control between removing the used battery and installing a new one). Of course, I used a new battery of the same type that was factory-installed in the key; I also checked it for efficiency. Unfortunately, after replacing the battery, the key stopped working, i.e. it does not allow you to open the car either by approaching the car door and opening the handle or by pressing the appropriate button on the remote control. I also performed the key re-synchronization procedure, available in the "Keys, locks and alarm/Key/Troubleshooting/Key not synchronized" section of the manual; unfortunately, it also failed - I still can't open the car with the key 😞 I will also add that the second (reserve) key is working without any problems for now. However, I am afraid that the battery in it may soon die as well and I will be left without the possibility of unlocking the car. Is there a solution to this problem?
