Well having spent the day trawling the internet, it could possibly be a
problem between the immobiliser chip in the key fob and the corresponding one in the instrument cluster not being in sync. which would make sense as the local garage disconnected the clocks and then reconnected them after a time. Then everything started working again and it’s not only Seat that have this
problem Vw, Skoda and to some extent Audi do too. So I need to know from Seat if this hard reset has cured it or if I need a new set of clocks or can get my own repaired.Thanks everyone for your imput.
