    Thank you so much! I did the repair and the whole thing with new batteries only cost $20.00, compadre to the $200+ to get a whole new key shipped through the dealership from Germany. Of course I’d love to order a couple new keys, but you can’t beat a $20.00 repair on a MB.

    Thanks for saving my dad over 800$ at the dealer to replace the whole key! It's insane. They told him they could not fix the plastic and would have to get a new key and reprogram it for his car. Now he hadn't told me about his key being worn out and damaged so when I found out I was furious! I've done this to 4 cars before and saved myself hundreds of dollars but I did not anticipate saving him nearly a grand thanks to you my man!

    Thank you for this. I just replaced my old Mercedes Benz key fob that was all chewed up looking with a brand new shiney one off ebay using these steps. I actually played this vid while I reproduced your steps on mine. It worked like a charm. My original fob was so old and worn the little white plastic interior holder broke in two. But I Super glued it back together and after it dried it held up fine and everything slid back in just like you said. Everything works perfectly now. Thanks again!

    @cwillatts 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Tip... The circuit board will come out more safely and easily if you pull it out by using a right angle pick tool in the tab holes where the white plastic spacer is. There's enough room around the plastic tabs / locator pins to get purchase with the pick and pull the circuit board out. You risk damaging the board by levering at it.

    Thank you for the video. Just replaced mine. I like to share what I did which it's a bit easier. I used the key to open the transponder a bit so you can clear the locking clips. I used a paper clip and stretched out on side. I bent the tip a tiny bit enough so that it could fit in the plastic opening that lock the chip. Once you open the transponder with the key, it clears the locking clips and with the bent clip side, pull the chip out.

    I think that long, thin protrusion is a secret catch. The little round nubs locate the clip to the board but then that long thin thing is the catch to locate the assembly.

    As can be seen at the end of the video, pressing the trunk button does not flash the red light on the key fob as the open and close buttons for the doors do. However, such is the way the button is supposed to work, i.e., without red light response flash.

      They are similar but have slightly different thicknesses. Both are lithium vs Manganese Dioxide, 3.0V, round, 20mm in diameter. The 2032 is 3.2mm thick while the 2025 is 2.5mm thick. Depending on if it will fit in the holder, they may well be interchangeable.

    • @SiriEmerald
      @SiriEmerald  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      To work, a Keyless Remote for your car needs a frequency, which is 433.92MHz in Europe (315MHz the U.S. and Japan). To meet the demand for remote keyless entry systems, Europe has also opened up the 868MHz band. Where ever you are ordering your remote from, all they should need to know is the Year, Make, Model, Trim and possibly the last 8 digits of your VIN. The frequency of the remote shouldn't be a question that the company would ask to be able to complete your purchase once you provide all of that other information.

    This Mercedes key is a prime example of overengineered junk. Absolutely the worst key design I have evr seen. This guy makes it look easy, but you literally need some dentist tools to do simple tasks like changing the battery. I waster 30 minutes of life on atask that should have taken 3 minutes max. For this reason only, I will NEVER buy mercedes again.
