Hello everyone, another DIY here for you guys. My Key Fob stopped working out of nowhere and it made me go crazy trying to figure out what's wrong. I hope this video helps you guys. After checking and changing the keyfob batteries I went looking for blown fuses. I found fuse 78 located on the passenger side dash blown. Problem solved. Have a great day guys.

I put a dime on the end of the 2 batteries on the negative side to make a tighter connection . Before it would only work randomly but now it Works great .I have a 2004 e320.

I have a similar issue with some complications. My fob wont do anything even with new batteries. Trick is, I can't get in the car even with the metal key. Some punk broke into it on the driver's side and busted the latch. I can unlock it with the key but the latch isn't catching on anything when you pull the handle. It has been sitting for a while with a dead battery. I bought a new one(charge them first, it was new off the shelf and had a 50% charge) and the trunk light comes on, but no other signs of life. Please help.

Sorry to hear that your car was vandalized. Unfortunately, you might need to bring it to the dealership to get programmed. Are you able to start the car?

[@cashmeousside4678]

@@PeterZafra Since I rocked it before I realized the latch was broken, right now I can't even get into the cabin. The dealership says its past the age range they will work on, but I guess they will still do dealer only programming. I asked them about a new key and they said they will bring it to me and program it if I can't get to the dealership. I offered to take it in in case there were complications and he said they wouldn't do anything else for it since it's too old.

Its weird how these cars work. Mine sits for a long time as well and it blew on its own. I really have no other answer about it other than an older car. If it blows again, don't up the amperage since it might lead to something worse.

[@PeterZafra]

[@atomattic1]

If you change this fuse or it is ok and you still do not have communication with smart key and will not start. Try putting 12V to that fuse directly. If all works ok after that, you have a shorted wire to that fuse. One common problem connection that goes to the back of the car. It is beneath the carpet on front passenger side where this fuse gets its power. Lift carpet from passenger floor all the way to front of front passenger seat. Its not where all the connections are where module is at fire wall. it is roughly 8" back from there, and to the right center of the seat. About 6 wires connect there. Its a thick gauge red wire connection that powers that fuse. That usually has the problem lays. Good luck Keep in mind, not all W220's have this right side fuse box. I believe, is on 2004 and up.

Did you make sure that the fob wasn't being blocked by lint on the sensor part of the key fob? If its clear then there could be a rare case of the fob needing to be re programmed or worse case just need to be changed.

Do you have your car battery connected to a float charger? If yes, disconnect before pressing any remote buttons. Also, leave car unlocked when float charging.

I have a w220 my key is communicating but it does not lock or unlock the car neither the trunk but when i press either the lock or unlock button the lights turn on but its not locking or unlocking the car so its unlocked all the time. What is happen please help me

[@PeterZafra]

Hi. Does your lock unlock button work on the doors? If it does then you may need to reprogram the remote. If the door switches don't unlock or lock the doors, then it could be the lock fuse

[@touficsakhat2783]

Peter Zafra my benz is s320 2000 model where is located the fuse box containing the lock fuse because i checked the location you showed and there was no fuse box

[@touficsakhat2783]

Peter Zafra actually i also have a problem with the doors and trunk vaccum the trunk wont close totally so could this be a commun issue. What would you advice me to do?

[@user-fl2ug7sr3t]

Check your trunk for a fusbox

Hi, I have a 2003 s500 where the key fob can't unlock the car with the remote or recognize the key in the ignition (at least for the first 10 or so tries), but it only happens in the morning when it's cold out. Any thoughts on what it could be? I've had the key fob battery changed, the car battery charged, and replaced the 78 fuse. Let me know, Thanks!

[@PeterZafra]

Wow that's strange. Make sure the fuse is on tight. It maybe having difficulty making contact in the cold

[@MrKisordog]

What was the problem?resolved?

[@brunobruno5635]

Ignition fault, if you keep the key in the igniton 24/7 it Will work but its a temporay solution you have to change the igniton cause its not ”reading” the key, costs about 1000 dollar from Mercedes they have to do it beacuse of programming and stuff

[@popevids1942]

Everyone video ppl skip over how they opened their car.

[@PeterZafra]

Mine didn't have the issue of not being able to open the car. Mine was not starting due to the blockage. Cheers

[@elizabeth5288]

I have a Mercedes Benz c230 2005 it did the same thing

[@elizabeth5288]

Do u know how could I fix it

[@PeterZafra]

I personally haven't worked on a c230 but it definitely won't hurt to try this procedure.

[@CapelloFamous]

how did you get into the car? my car is locked and I am looking for the best way to unlock the car so I can change the fuse.

[@hr.linnas5329]

Take the emergency key from your main key, and unlock the driver door.

[@capitalrealestategroup6426]

@@hr.linnas5329 same issue here but the key won’t unlock the drivers door? 🙃

Guys please help I have a Mercedes Benz c200 w203 2004 the key does not turn in the ignition at all. I can only lock the car use the remote (key) but can't lock it. I don't have the spare key to test. I checked fuses they all are fine. Any advise in the area would help a lot. Thanks

[@PeterZafra]

Try cleaning the key fob out. This could help. Sometimes lint could block the infrared sensor and prevent communication with the computer. Cheers. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZouQiqKFZcSIqac
