Convertible top remote control operation
Hi everyone
I have a 2011 SL550 and was wondering if I can open and close the top with just my remote control and how?
also with the trunk.
TY !

Hold the key up to the IR receiver in the door handle and press open. (At least this is the procedure for 2005 model - surely same for yours.. ?)
Not working? Probably dry solder joints in the module in the handle. Known issue on early cars.

The top does work with your procedure but for some reason, my 2 small window in the back does not roll up after it close. The 2 front does roll up. Do you know why or how to fix that?
