W209 CLK
"Keyless Go" Testing
I bought a 2004 w209 CLK 11 months ago. It has the keyless go system. I can start the engine. I can lock and unlock via the boot. I can unlock from the driver's side but not lock. I cannot unlock or lock from the passenger side.
I finally decide to DIY this frustrating problem.
I searched the net for all possible solutions and discussions on this issue. There are quite a few articles and discussions out there.
Basically, most indicate the problem is the actual door handles themselves. At more than NZ$500 a pop and that is not a cheap solution.
I needed a way to test and confirm this is indeed the problem before ordering a new handle.
I can happily
report that there is a way to test your "keyless go" door handle to confirm they are faulty or not.
Also I have not found any articles of what is inside these keyless go door handles...so I decided to take one apart; get some photos and enlighten others.
See attached PDF files....
