immobiliser...

[Doyle]

I just bought my brother in laws mercedes C200 Sport Auto:

and i lock the car by pressing the keyfob button, unfortunatley i couldnt get the immobiliser off again. im going to order a key for the mercedes garage tomorrow but right now im car'less.
Anyone know if there is a manual overide or a sequence to do in order to get the car to start?

thanks...

Paul

I don't know if this is in the wrong section as the forums were hard to read. If it is i'm sorry.

As you have a digital camara you can check the remote keyfob by pressing it in front of a camara you will see the light when you press it.

You would think that after he took the fob apart the first time he would have learnt his lesson

well ill soon find out.

my bro in law went today and they told him that i need my log book that i havent got yet.

brilliant!

not

 

[Doyle]

anyone know any temporary solutions? i.e. a bodge?

 

[Blobcat]

No otherwise what would the point be of having an immobiliser. Also if a work around was posted anyone with access to a computer could read the post and happiliy steal MB's all day long.

 

[Doyle]

Ah i see...my bro in law has got the imobiliser off using the broken key.....he said he resycronised the keyfob to the car and it unlocked thew imobiliser. so i can drive it but no central locking etc.

I hope you had a good deal, as you are looking at a few bills already. You will need tax this month as well.

Why am I suspicious, I see a camera phone photograph of a badly parked Mercedes in what looks to be a public carpark. The first post is how to disable the immobiliser so it can be driven. Does anyone else hear alarm bells

innocent until proven guilty .......... but im afraid you will need a new fob, there isnt a way of bodging it otherwise you will end up with even more expensive bills
