Hi,
Bought a used 1995 c220 w202 Basic merc with a faulty central lock and no remote control. The owner doesn't know wither it originally had a remote control.

Now that I have fixed the vacuum pumb, Central lock is back to life again. However, how can I know wither this car can use a remote control or not? also, if it does, how can I add a new one?

Please let me know. Thanks

Do you mean a key with a remote unlocking button?

Is there a red and green light on the lower edge of the rear view mirror? If yes, you have remote central locking.

wither means to shrivel from lack of moisture, the word you wanted was whether and a wether is a castrated sheep

Pot, kettle, black.

All sentences should start with capital letter, and end with full stops.

Hi,
As far as I know all the 202's had remote locking, certainly eurospec ones did, have you got a key lock on both front doors as this I think would be an indication if it was meant to have remote locking.
As far as I,m aware the only way would be to get a new fob from MB, but this will be I expect prohibitively expensive.
A better solution would be to fit an aftermarket kit such as this below in the link, as it comes with new remotes.
