key doesnt work after replacing the batteries?
I replaced the batteries in my remote and now it won unlock/start the car. The little red led will light up when you press the buttons but nothing happens. I stuck it in the ignition switch and nothing happens either.Thanks.
p.s. Sorry about this being a duplicate of a post I put in the w203 section but my car wopnt start and Im trying to figure out if I need to go to the dealer tomorrow.

Well the manual says to put the key in the ignition for it to reprogram. I did that and nothing happened. On a hunch I decided to hook up my jumper pack to see if it was a dead battery. It was dead.soon as I touched the negative cable the light came one and so did the alarm. I tried to start it and I heard a click and could'nt get it to even turn over. So off to the shop tomorrow. Iv read to many posts about crap happening after the battery is changed so im not even going to attempt to replace it.
