keyless Go opens doors when wet
I'm new to Mercedes and Keyless go, my new GLC AMG Line Coupe has keyless go and I've found that when hosing my car down with the keys in my pocket the doors keep unlocking and locking. Obviously the finger sensor senses the water and unlocks the door. This is very alarming, could this happen when it's raining if I walk past the car with the keys in my pocket leaving the car unlocked. Has anybody else experienced this. It's nothing to do with pressure as the lightest touch with a finger unlocks the doors and when I spray it with a fine mist with no pressure it unlocks and locks continuously.

Well in theory, the rain would have to be completely concentrated at that one location... just like the water coming out of your hose blasting towards the handle. You'd also have to be at the right distance and right time for that to happen. Near impossible for something like that to happen given the circumstances. Plus the car will automatically lock after a while you are away from the car with your key
