The coin battery that is located in the key fob of your Seat Leon is a very vital component of the remote keyless system. It is fitted with clips made of metal which keep it in place and complete the circuit by sending power to the receiver module.

This is also common when the battery has been replaced with a unit that's the wrong size or voltage. This can be corrected by replacing the old battery with a brand new one. Make sure you use a battery of the same size and voltage as the original.
The fob can also stop working if the contacts of the battery are not working properly or there's water damage, signal interference or a 12- voltage dead battery.

Radio interference

This type of interference may also affect the range of your key is able to reach. If your remote key only works from a short distance try placing it near your chin or forehead and see if this fixes the issue.

It is as simple as taking the battery off for a few minutes (first, the negative cable, and then the positive cable). Afterwards, the key fob should function as usual. If this doesn't work, you will be required to visit a dealership licensed to reprogramme. You can also employ an OBDDII scanner to diagnose the problem.
