You do this by standing a foot or two away and pointing the key at the IR sensor on the door handle, right? What happens is that the IR sensor quits working d to its harsh environment. There are some ways to fix this, but honestly, I would not bother. Instead, invest in the SmartTop controller. It makes the soft top work the way it should have until the MBZ lawyers got involved!
