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 key fobs lock and unlock the doors, and open/ close the windows. They only do this at ~6" distance from the drivers handle though. Is this usual?
2. Only one key fob (handily marked with a green sticker by the stealer) will operate the ignition. This key works fine, the other key goes into the dash recess and nothing at all happens.
Can anyone shed some light on this? Do I need a new fob?
