What do you do if you get this message and there’s no start button.

@maracaibotrini4793 2 года назад

I changed the battery and it didn't work. I put back the old battery and it worked again. Can the difference being the old battery is Panasonic and the new one Duracell be the issue of is there some programing I need to do once I put in a new battery?

@mrgamezguy123 Год назад

Did you get this fixed

@JeffBell1144 3 года назад

I just had key fob issues with my 2008 S 550 it wouldn't lock or unlock the doors also push start not working. All fuses were good and key fob not defective. After a week my car wouldn't start at all. After a jump I drove it to Park Place and left it there overnight to have them test the two batteries after car sat for a while. Turns out that the main system battery in the trunk was bad. It was draining power from the starter battery that's why my key fob stopped working and car wouldn't start. I replaced the main system battery and everything works fine.

@DriveTalkCars 3 года назад

Yeah, these cars are always on with all the electronics so the batteries are very important. Glad you were able to get everything resolved. Thanks for commenting and checking out channel! 🙏🏽

Can anti theft system can be triggered by trying to remove radio without tools, now my car wont keep running for more than half second. How do i fix that?

@thvmcs 2 года назад

i got a problem that whenever i push my start button nothing happens, and when i try to use the keyfob to start the car it says take key from ignition, ik its an esl problem, but is there a temporary work around to start the car or something to take it to the dealership? i seen this one video this guy took out a fuse and a relay cover but i havent had the chance to try, but wanted to see if there was other ways

@roderickholder4049 3 года назад

Hey bro what if the fob don’t turn? It also had water damage but I replaced the batteries it worked for days ago now won’t work what should I do?

@DriveTalkCars 3 года назад

Water damage can be tricky. It will work for a minute and then stop. A lot of times it is due to corrosion that doesn’t (at first) cause issue but over time (can be short or long) it will cause things to stop working. It may be too late, especially with circuit boards. But you can try cleaning the circuit board inside the fob with Isopropyl Alcohol 99%. The best results come from ultrasonic cleaner since it does a deep clean (can be pricey though). Good luck! 👍🏽

@@DriveTalkCars You told me exactly what was wrong with my key fob. I had no idea that the key fob weak battery would contribute to turning off my car. Now I make sure the battery is strong and the key fob is close to the starter and not on the passenger seat.. Thanks for saving me money. You are a blessing.

I change the battery on the key fob still not detecting it

@JamesPursell-mx4jc Год назад

I’m having an issue in my 2014 E63-S where my key fob works fine, battery is good etc. But when I go to start the car (whether with the push button, or putting the key in the ignition), the car does NOTHING. It’s acting like my foot isn’t on the brake, it just goes to position 2 acting like I’m not trying to start the car. Did it randomly a few times and after pressing on and off like 20+ times it randomly worked. This happened more and more and now no matter how many times I try it won’t start. Any ideas? I’ve heard of faulty brake light switch not detecting your foot on the brake?

@Jojo-147 Год назад

Mine is doing the same! Did you find a resolution?

@JamesPursell-mx4jc Год назад

@@Jojo-147 Hi yes I solved it! Actually it was my starter motor relay! Located in the fuse box driver side engine bay. I took it out, and put it back in and it started. I then just put in a new one from Mercedes and it started perfectly. It’s labeled as Relay M, Terminal 50 Relay. Mine was a green square relay.

@effa114 3 года назад

Just wondering how your Ghibli is doing. Any major issues if you still have it? I keep hearing about battery drain, but I’m not sure if that’s just isolated to a few. Thanks!

Hello mate. My Mercedes W204 key fob still unlock/lock doors, but not starting car from time to time, but the other key dont have that problem and start all the time. how to fix second key?

@DriveTalkCars 2 года назад

For me it was the battery in one of my key fobs. The battery may be getting too low for the car to start with your second key.

No, but you wouldn’t be able to turn it back on once the car was turned off.

@kingaarontx Год назад

So, what happens when you remove the button and use the key as a traditional and still doesn't turn on?

@DriveTalkCars Год назад

I'm thinking it could be a dead/weak car battery, key fob isn't being recognized at all, or something more complex.

Hmm…you might have a car battery issue or the key fob needs to be resynced to your vehicle.
