2006 SLK 280
Smart key problem
Hi everyone...i have a new 2006 SLK 280 that I bought not too long ago and I only have driven it for 1,200 miles and after washing it one day my keyless remote stopped working. I changed the batteries on both of the smart keys and still nothing changed. What are some things that I could check before bringing her to the dealership?

Play dumb, act like it just stopped working one day, it's covered under warranty and get a new one, otherwise, it's gonna cost you a lot if you tell the truth. It probably needs to be re-programmed by the dealer.

You washed one key but the other one also stopped working? Or you washed the car and both keys stopped working? Or am I not even remotely close to what happened? Something doesn't sound right.
