fob

Hi! I bought a spare used key for my 2017 E-Class, and before I go to a local shop to pair it with my car, I was wondering if the LED on top of it should light up whenever I press a button on the key. I changed the battery too and it doesn't light up. Is the key defective or it won't light up...

Hi, First time posting. As mentioned above, neither of my key fobs are working (they were fine a couple of days ago). I have 2. I have tried replacing the batteries in one of the keys. Still no luck. The IR seems to be working (I can see a light through my camera and whilst temperamental...

Hey guys, my W211 remote keys works just fine when start engin, lock and unlock all doors. But when parking for an hour or more, the remote keys cannot open or lock doors. Remote red light still blinks, key fob batteries are good, but no respond from the doors. Need to take out small key to...

Hi Guys, I'm new here, first mercedes I've ever owned and I love it. I bought the car from a dealer who had it for sale cheap with no warranty. I took it for a drive and there is a couple of issues but the price was good. What I didn't realize is they key fob does not lock/unlock the car...

Bought at auction...and I have a key. It worked on the door locks, for a short couple of days, but never did it let me turn the key or start the car . It won't budge. So instead of going to the dealer and having them order one from Germany and then towing the car two cities away to the dealer...

Hello everyone, Thank you for the help offered so far, the advice has been invaluable. The travails of my (newly acquired) W reg CL500 continue... So today the fresh CR2025 batteries arrived and I have replaced the old ones in the key fobs. I now face an unusual problem. 1. Both...

Hi. My 1995 C180 will unlock with the fob. But the key will not turn. I manged to start it twice since this began. But no more key turning now. The fob battery tests fine and the car battery is charged. Any clues. I don't want to resync the fob as I can't turn the key at all Thanks...

New member and currently really annoyed with M-B. Just read NeilA's post and must ask my own question. My wife's key failed 6 months ago in her M-B and new one cost her about £200. I have just been to stealership this morning with my failed key - new one about £210. However, they have just...

Hey guys i have a serious problem. My keyfob has been a bit tempremental over the last few weeks and i decided to bite the bullet and buy new batteries, although when i was changing them a few things happened - one of the connectors on the bottom of the board has come clean off and the...

Hello, I recently bought a 1994 E320 couple, which sadly only came with one key and one immobiliser fob. this fob fits into the dashboard, where it has to be inserted for five seconds before you can start the car. I'm fine with keeping it, but the problem is that I only have one of them...

The key fob is not working to open the doors or the boot unless you actually touch the door handle with it, and even then it doesn't work well. Also, the FM radio doesn't work. It sounds like the arial's been disconnected, but of course it hasn't. I suspect both faults are linked, and maybe they...

I bought this car last week knowing it had a problem with both of the remote key fobs. One starts the car and unlocks but wont lock the doors, the other did nothing at all. I changed the batteries in both but no difference. Last night a saw a thread that suggested pointing the fobs at...

Hi All The second key fob for my ML270 is in perfect working order but I can not attach any other keys to it as the loop is broken. I have bought a replacement fob of Ebay for £25. I would have used the old blade in the new fob but it is slightly thinner where it goes in to the fob! Today...

:( i am having a problem with my 313 Sprinter. The fob key looks like that has been de-synchronized with the vehicle as the visual LED and the IF are working (red LED turns ON when press any of the 3 keys and infra red can been seen on camera when any of the 3 keys are pressed) - does not...

Hi - I haven't been able to find the solution to my problem searching here, so i thought I'd post to get some opinions. i have a '99 E300TD and after replacing the batteries on the fob, the fob has stopped working. It will still start the car, but the buttons don't work for the central...

Hi Everyone, First post to this forum here so I hope I can find some help. I have a June 2000 S320, no major complaints aside from a couple of niggles which I will ask about in due course but the most important issue is that of the spare key not working (I'm paranoid about losing the main...
