2002 - E320 Sedan - Radio code

I left the headlights on overnite and drained the battery. Managed to jump start car but now two issues;

1. Have to radio ID card but entered it on the radio but it comes back with the message "CODE"; after multiple tries it says "WAIT" and reverts back to "CODE"

2. None of the one-touch window buttons are working. If I press it half way down, it works but not one-touch mechanism

Does any one know how to properly enter the code as well as resetting the windows issue? Thanks much.

one touch windows and sunroof have to be normalized again. refer to your manual for that. if code comes back it means you entered the wrong code.

The radio may not be the original. To get the code, you'll need to pull the radio and get the serial number.

Thanks to all who submitted your thoughts. I followed Hirnbeiss's suggestion, pulled the radio out, called the dealer with the serial number and they provided me the code. The windows, for future reference, close the window all the way up and hold the button down for 3 or 4 seconds. Repeat this for each of the windows - one touch will return. Thanks guys.
