New here-ML320 W164 remote issue

Hi guys,
i have an W164 and there is a problem with locking/unlocking.
i need to be very close to car or IR on handle to lock/unlock.
I tried to remove rear SAM and found some water underneath the SAM, opened the SAM mand there was nothing significant.

can you help me with this?
thanks

I change the remote batteries in my remotes once a year. I believe the car battery would be the only thing to effect the sam. Do you have 2 batteries in the car One under the hood the other in the trunk area? The one in the trunk area would be the one controlling the remotes I believe. I would have them tested. Any auto parts place should do it for free.

Welcome! Please post a photo of the M-Class. There is an active W164 section on this site with many helpful owners.
