SOURCE: MY WILL NOT START THE CAR C240 MERCEDES BATTERY IS NOT DEAD

I am assuming that the engine won't even turn over. could be lots of different things. The simplist is to make sure the car in in PARK , won't start if not. Other things could be , Security imobilizer if you have one. Does your key have a electronic chip in it ? Try your other set of keys if you have one. Check if battery connections are clean and tight.

    Mercedes benz c240 2003 car cannot start ignition

    Try checking the key reader it's usually a plastic ring around the key barrel. If it's dies will not read code in key to enable the car to start. Check your key is sending a code as well.

    I have a mercedes c240 auto but the ignition wont turn seems locked

    1. Some times the keys wear out. Do you have a spair key you can try.
    2. Turn the steering wheel back and forth while trying to turn the key sometime the steering wheering lock will bind.
    3. Now the bummer part is the ignition lock will have to come out so you can determine what part froze up.

    I hope all you want is to reset the service indicator and this is how you do it.

    Tum the key to position one, scroll using the arrows on your steering wheel until the service interval or indicator is shown,press the reset button for at least 2 seconds (the reset button is the one you use to reset the trip meter or increase and decrease light intensity of the dashboard). The display will ask you whether you want to reset service interval, press the reset button again and this will reset your service interval.
