Leon Key Fob battery

[Contrarian]

Hi there, could someone tell me what is the correct type of battery to fit in the key fob for a late-2002 Seat Leon?

I made the mistake of getting my garage to change the battery. Apart from over-charging me, they fitted two thin batteries in the place where (I believe) there should be just one thicker one. This meant that one battery was shorted, which in turn meant that the remote worked just about long enough for me to get home...

Anyway the upshot is that since they have thrown the original away I don't know what battery to fit!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks very much - much obliged. I'll try getting one of these.

(I had tried a quick search of the forum but hadn't managed to come up with the goods!)

From reading this forum I have a sneaky suspicion that I might then run into 'programming' problems, but I'll try it first and see... if so I'll be back on this site!

Cheers

Just follow the guide that is in your owners manual and it should be the correct procedure for your car.
