Why is the key to the Polo not working anymore?
Years 2017-2025

Answer

In some cases, it may happen that the key of the Polo does not work properly. Generally, the problem occurs after repeated pressing of the button on the remote control when the car is far away, but the cause could also be a flat battery. The first thing to do is to change the battery of the remote control. If the problem persists, then it is necessary to press any button for 5 seconds while the new battery has not yet been inserted, install the new battery, and finally reprogram it.
