Can't open top with key fob anymore...
Hello,

I used to be able to open my top remotely with my key fob, but can't anymore. Is there a way to program this feature back in the fob? 2004 CLK 55
Thanks in advance!

I'm new to a CLK, but on mine, it seems that the IR receiver in the door handle is not working.

Hey all... how can I make sure that it's the IR sensor gone bad? Seemayur, how did you find out that it was your IR sensor?
