SL 55 AMG
Program a new key
Hi,
I bought a new key to my 2004 SL55 AMG with keyless go function, the dealer didnīt program it properly so the keyless function in the key donīt work.
Does anyone know how to program the key so the keyless go function works?
Regards

Plutoe is correct. I spoke with the service rep from my local dealership, he said that each key needs to be programmed through their system. If they gave you the key and it does not work - they did not complete the process. Unless you had it done at your indy shop, that might require some extra steps, but the result should be the same.

The keyless entry portion comes set from the factory for your car so your lock unlock trunk panic and starting the vehicle with the actual key will work. This is the Drive Authorization System (DAS). However, the KeylessGo portion must be programmed by the dealer using their computer.
