command/ radio problems
during the winter i have left my car in the garage for a few weeks cause the car is not good in snow and when i finally get to drive it again... i notice that my radio is working but the buttons dont work... the buttons for radio, cd, bass, treble and the number button on the right... the only thing that works is the volume... can someone tell me whats wrong and what can i do to fix it without bringing it to the dealer?

Is there a step by step procedure? Or just the wire from the battery?

Geez, don't reset it again, you might not be able to get a door open!

J/K. If I were in your shoes, I would do the re-set again but wait a while before you hook the battery back up. When I changed my negative cable my steering wheel controls didn't work anymore - I did the battery reset thing again and all is well...

W209 electrical gremlins much???

Disconect the negative side. Why do you want a new negative cable, is yours worn/corroded?
