lol yeah i leave my keys inside so it doesnt do anything.

at first i thought it messed it up or something haha.

 

Or leave your key on the seat of the car and that will also stop it

Thanks a lot pcho for the advice, I never thought of trying to leave the keys inside the car as I'm too afraid to lock them in... hehehe!

 

It wont let you. somehow it knows when you are not in the car (probably pressure sensor on the seat?) but the key is still in the car. with those conditions, it prevents you from locking the car from the outside

 

You cannot lock you car if the the keyless entry key is in the car. It won't lock if you have it in the boot too. It is a great safety feature.

I use to have the same problem when washing my car. It locks and unlocks on each stroke, forwards and backwards as I clean my car with the car cloth. Annoy the hell out of me until I found out chucking the key on the seat stops that.

Got a call from the SA today and that the part came in early! We'll know tomorrow if the fix works!

 

Quick update before I go play soccer

Got my car back! the handle so far seems like its working beautifully!

I have been without my DD for almost two weeks now, that drive home... lets just say, felt like two best friends that finally met up after years apart.... almost shed a tear.

and then I went on to the on ramp, flipped it to S+ and zoomed off!

 

hahaha good news

 

Awesome to hear ur car is fixed & u will get to enjoy it this Canada day long week-end!!

Who would think a defective antenna would affect the keyless go feature?? Unbelievable...

 

Thx again pcho & timothy, u guys r great help on this forum!! I learn new things everyday.

 

^^^ Second to that, especially that it was only one door. Good thing it is fixed (hopefully), enjoy it and the weather !

 

glad youre up and running! so was it really the antennae that was causing a short or something? crazy

 

Just got back home and damn I miss this car lol... Anyway, when I went to pick up my car, the SA knew I was in a hurry so he pretty much just flipped me the keys, no paperwork etc so I was on my merry way. I think i'll give him a shout next week to ask for a report.

Accel, I know what you mean that it doesnt really make alot of sense that the antenna problem only affected one door, but its working great now so far... hopefully the report back will explain something

Btw, this dealer has a gorgeous CL63 in the showroom, diamond white with alot of bells and whistles..for 170k + it's scary how expensive some of these cars go for but what a beauty.
