    RF lock/unlock works in cold weather only ?

    **Dec** The alarm is in good working order. I know it, because I recently had to replace EIS because it suffered with the same problem I now have with RF which **wongl** suggested, which actually seems probable. Since the EIS would freeze overnight, the car would not open via RF or IR but via...

    RF lock/unlock works in cold weather only ?

    I see! So is this something that can be repaired or might as well get a new antenna amplifier and replace it? Thanks

    RF lock/unlock works in cold weather only ?

    Hello all, Problem RF lock/unlock misbehaving I am reduced to locking/unlocking my car via IR only, for a while now. However, recently as the cold weather has arrived the RF suddenly has started to work again but only if the temperature outside or inside the car remains at or roughly below...

    How did brake fluid reservoir filled up with water?

    The car wasn't borrowed definitely. Mechanic did the job perfectly regarding replacing it with brake fluid, no problems now. However, brake fluid being hydroscopic + reservoir being 'vented' and brake fluid has not been changed in at least 2 years perhaps added to the problem. Thank you for...

    How did brake fluid reservoir filled up with water?

    I've been away for 2 months (May-June), parked the car on the curb and when I returned brakes felt like I was driving on eggs. Mechanic told me my brake fluid was water, not brake fluid. He has no idea how did that happen, nor I do. The car is C200K, 2001 production. I bought it 3 years ago...

    Key Fob

    I need one for my C200K, W203, 2001y, 3 buttons also. It stopped starting the engine, just the doors. I sent for repair services but they said they have no coil to replace inside, so still faulty. I am driving on a spare for now…

    gremlin is killing the electric seat gradually

    When singling out the problem it indeed appears to be faulty seat control unit however I am still unsure because the driver's SCM has not worked too on the passenger's side. Therefore I am not sure whether there is any difference between driver's and passenger's SCM or not? If there is, then...

    gremlin is killing the electric seat gradually

    Since the motors are all operating on the other SCM, meaning their wiring is fine. Unless what WIRING HARNESS are you talking about: the one that feeds from the seat switch through the floor to the SCM?

    gremlin is killing the electric seat gradually

    The passenger seat is dying off slowly. First its the back/forward option, then back of up/down option, then recliner. So the only thing the seat is doing now is moving up and down in the front and the head rest. I thought may be motors but the seat was so far back that the back bolts were...

    Forgive my language skills but what does "Take the seat back off" mean? Is it take the back part of the seat off? or Undo the bolts on the floor at the back of the seat and lift it up (i.e. up and forward) to see the wires at the back of SCM?

    Mmm, it should be. I raised this issue because the seat stopped reclining back/forward recently. Prior it did recline at a switch and according to the memory function. Now it stopped just the clicking noises. So, before I started dealing with mechanical problems with motors I've noticed the...
