Question Where are the RF receivers located?

My key doesn’t work from far when my rear dash cam is plugged so I have to reroute the cables but I didn’t find any diagram of the RF receivers placements
thanks

This is shown in WIS. Do you have a copy? Search eBay.

Antennae for W166 are in:

each door (4)
front center console
rear seat center area, I think under the rear center seat

6 total for W166. If your dash cam cable runs through the center of the car there is a strong chance it is near an antenna. Running it through the headliner would be safer from the point of view of avoiding an antenna.

Hi I didn’t find any WIS for the W205 all links are broken and my cables already are passing through the headlines then top right of the car

Thanks for your help

WIS contains all MB vehicles. Did you search ebay? $8 download or thereabouts.

This is for W204: http://benz.ehost.tj/204/webetm/webetm/204/start.html

Search for A2/61, the antenna in the center stack near the climate control/audio control. It's likely one of your cables is running near this antenna.
