Car won't start after lengthy storage, key is useless
Hi, new to this forum, I hope I am doing this right...
2003 Mercedes C240 has been stored for aprox 1 year. It was running fine prior and had a new battery installed. After some time the battery ran low and the alarm went off out of the blue. The battery was disconnected and remained that way until recently. The fob key will not open the doors nor start the car. The antenna is good and battery in the fob has been replaced. If anyone has any information as to what may be wrong and a possible fix I will be forever grateful. I have spent hours upon hours scouring the internet and watching videos and have too much contradictory information and no idea where to go from here.
Thanks a bunch!
