Lovelyas Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 Greetings Is it possible to request a replacement infrared keyfob from Mercedes Germany for my 1998 SL500 (R129) model? I would much appreciate any guidance or recommendations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspirli Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 In my opinion, automobiles of that period were equipped with dealer-installed aftermarket alarms. Upload a picture of the fob. If it is not an original product, there is no possibility. What is the issue with yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedelon Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 I recall reading that the availability of new IR fobs has ceased, however it would be prudent to verify this with the parts department at a dealership. The MBSS (Mercedes-Benz Security System) alarm/immobiliser was installed in the UK by Scorpion prior to being delivered to the dealer. I possess the certificate for my automobile from 1997.

NarrativePsych Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 Goodness gracious. Have you retained it for all these years? I believed that I was a person who excessively accumulates and keeps things, but now I see that my behaviour is not as extreme as I imagined.

Bedelon Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 I own the automobile, which is now stored in the folder beside the guidebook. However, I purchased it alone in 2004 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NarrativePsych Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 I only accumulate the receipts, but you really amass the autos 😄 Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tearcarl Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 Indeed. It was identical to my W124. A rectangular fob with two square buttons and a red light positioned at the top corner. Several years ago, the buttons on my device became less responsive, so I purchased a couple brand new key fobs from an online marketplace and replaced the internal components. That happened a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RosaStyle Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 They are currently accessible. Patience is required, since it may take a considerable amount of time, but eventually it will materialise. The vintage 129-key flip-out keyboard is unlikely to be replicable by independent key manufacturers. The DAS 3, which is the first electronic key, has the capability to perform the desired action. You will own a DAS2 on your 129. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
