Thank you television for your reply. I tried with the spare key and it works fine but now I have no spare key as the first will not start the car but open doors only I am sure there is a way around it. IF ANY BODY KNOWS I DONT WANT TO PAY £200 TO MERC DEALEARS empirerighton@hotmail.com

sorry to say but if the 2nd key works, then you need a new key!!!

If the locking works, but the car does not start then the chances are that the little coil has fallen off the PCB,, they can sometimes be soldered back on
