Unleash Your Mercedes Key Fob's Power (Full Mercedes Keyless Go Tutorial)

[@davinlaroche3029]

Here's an extra tip on Mercedes models with Keyless Go: to help prevent theft, you can turn the key off by double-pressing the lock button. The light on the key should blink twice quickly, then stay on for about a full second. The key will no longer be emitting the radio signal, so relay attacks are less likely. To reactivate the key, simply press the unlock button and Keyless Go features will be restored. This also works on newer models with the rectangular key. One thing I found strange on my 2017 GLC is, if you pop the cover off of the driver's side door handle to gain access to the lock cylinder, for some reason it deactivates Keyless Go. When I grab the handle on either of the four doors, nothing happens. I need to unlock the car with the fob. What makes it strange is, the door handle doesn't have some sort of sensor in it to recognize if the cover is there, and the cover itself is simply a chrome-plated plastic piece clipped onto a body-colored plastic piece. 🤷🏼‍♂

Basic suite of Mercedes functions for decades. The key remote even puts convertible roofs down from outside.

Yes it’s slightly more flexible than our BMws

[@DeflectionMode]

4:05 I was expecting you to cuss for some reason after having some trouble with that door handle cover. 😂

[@ECPP]

Haha I was worried about breaking some of that cheap plastic.

[@PaulClark-s1t]

Another great video thank you, I notice that your boot when you open it springs right up, mine only just pops open about 1 inch , is there a way I can get mine to spring right up when opening it please.

[@ECPP]

Complex at what cost ? Being trapped in a potential dark alley ? I miss old school technology.😮

[@ECPP]

I agree, predictable and sturdy is great

[@ikeudechukwu5018]

[@tonystank_kick]

How can i remote start it can do it with their phone app but if i dont have the user phone with me how can I remote start

[@DeflectionMode]

Great video about your Mercedes Benz’ key fob features Mark. 👍

[@ECPP]

Thanks for watching. Does not look to be a very popular vid overall though unfortunately

[@baja63383]

Is there no remote start on these cars with the keyfob?

[@themachine8009]

Volkswagen keys r the same functions

[@kylegill1989]

No key fob engine start ?

[@isaachy777]

Some models also have remote start. Press the panic button quickly once and it will remote start the engine from a distance. The manual says nothing about this and we had to find out from our local mechanic.

[@ECPP]

Interesting! I'll have to look into that one myself.

[@SecurityMorton]

Good Morning Sir, I have a question. My question to you is, I Have GLE 350 of 2016 and milage around 53000, the problem started few months back- the Drive shift in the morning when shifted to drive mode it lingers in D for a second or 2 in the morning before it changes to D1 (or even when the car is parked for few hours) - and whole car jerks ( Shakes in forward motion) till shift goes to D1 and the jerking stops, why is it doing that? any suggestion? Thank you.

[@Canadian_Gamer]

I have the same fob for my W204 C350. Replacing the battery is a headache because half the time the replace battery dash light stays on. Only name brand 2024 3V batteries seem to clear the light, Dollarama batteries don’t cut the mustard. DO NOT take your fob to the dealer to replace the battery lol

[@ECPP]

Haha, yes the dollar stores and such always carry crap in my opinion, and go with the quality ones and model as per the fob and manual.

[@Mike_257]

" Too much engineering " "Too much money" " Too many failures " !!!!!!

[@ECPP]

yes its great when it works, however, when it fails....look out

[@beinjar5634]

Mine still works well since 2016. I have 2016 C250 AMG sport and never experienced problems and it’s already out of warranty

[@twannasmith2049]

Changed the battery in fib now the doors can’t lock using my fob

[@BilalLandy]

Thx a lot

[@ECPP]

You're welcome!

[@Moneyluv-e1z]

Why does my doors keep locking and unlocking while I'm in the car? I have a GL450 and lm sick of hearing it lock and unlock while lm driving like it's possessed or a ghost doing it 🤦how do l stop this

[@Piccolo_Re]

See if any of the lock/unlock buttons are stuck or sticky.

[@grahambrown9409]

Don’t go to the dealer to get a new battery. They are a common battery that can be bought in most retailers.

[@melissasmess2773]

Nothing works at year ten, the receiver died. Now the stealer wants to replace everything including the ignition switch for about $1,200. Now I am left with using the tiny ass key to get into my car. I blame Chrysler because 35% of my car is American. I’m looking for a locksmith to cut me a key with a full size head. I lost one ignition key because you can’t put it on my keychain once you remove the emergency key, probably out another $300. Just a really bad deal once the keyless-go fails, tiny key difficult to use, loose ignition key, out $1,500?

[@ECPP]

Whoa that’s not good, sorry to hear that. Yes all this newer tech is wonderful when it’s new, but mince it fails, ouch.

[@mjk9674]

beautiful car, but lose the seat covers!

[@ECPP]

Noted!

[@David-d4k9k]

The key fob works better than their cars.

[@ECPP]

Haha, ouch

[@MechanicalJay]

DDE life is to short to drive boring cars ..

[@sniggitty]

Seriously, D? how to use a key fob. Quirks and Features, your taking DeMuro's gig....

[@ECPP]

Thank you. I have several tutorials in the channel from other makes and models

[@jaguar7051]

Very Good Regarding the Battery for this key I buy from eBay 20 of them from and have for a very long time I like what you showed because many MB owners do not know When we buy a car sell people not all the time know all the means or have a Girlfriend waiting on a call back. To read the Owner Manual no one is interested, there is nothing true in 70% Becomes a physical gift.

[@ECPP]

Thanks very much for watching and yes, I agree, many do not know some of these features, even i took a bit to learn when we first bought the car.
