***** So I changed the batteries in the remote, but, I'm still not able to get it to work the way it's supposed to. The reason I changed the batteries was because I couldn't get my car to unlock unless I pointed the front of the remote directly at the IR receiver on the door handle at a distance of not more than an inch or two. Still getting the same issue even after changing the batteries...
@ultimatehandyman10 жыл бұрын
Naveed Khan Were the new batteries good quality ones? Sometimes if you buy cheap ones they are not so good. I'd try a new pair of batteries and if it's still not working you might need to take it to a Mercedes specialist to find out if it's the key fob or the receiver that is faulty.

@ultimatehandyman5 жыл бұрын
If the Led light is not coming on, I would first check that the batteries are not faulty. If the batteries are good, the key fob is probably faulty. I'm not sure how long it takes for the key to lose it's code- but I would imagine the code would be stored indefinitely in the key, regardless of the batteries being flat.
