Hi All
I have just bought myself a great relatively low-mileage 02 plate C-Class coupe C200 and absolutely love it, can't fault the way it drives.
Apologies for my first post being a technical question but wondered if anybody might be able to help.
The car had not been used for at least 6 months before I bought it and mechanically it is sound, but there are a few electrical gremlins that I am trying to iron out, some of them I believe might be a result of the battery being disconnected when the car was not in use.
First of all the panoramic sunroof didn't work, but I quickly sorted that by resetting it.
Secondly the key fob only works on the ignition, but it does't lock or unlock the car. I have replaced the battery and done the digital camera test so it is definitely transmitting an infra red signal. The central locking works if I use the dashboard switch.
Finally the electric seat and steering wheel adjuster don't work either. Not sure if this is connected to the key fob not working. I had the car serviced and they checked a few of the fuses (although the mechanic is not an auto electrician), and I was told that they are fine.
If any body has any suggestions please let me know, any help would be greatly appreciated as I have to use the emergency key to get in and out of the car.
Thanks in advance
