Can't turn alarm off

I have a Mercedes C200. The intruder alarm came on and I can't switch it off. I tried with my key fob but this won't work. I couldn't open the doors with the fob and had to open them manually. My key won't switch the engine on. How do I stop the alarm?

    Locked the doors (which set the alarm) on my A class 140 (2001) - when I came back an hour later nothing worked via the key, so I had to manually open the driver door (which set off the alarm) luckily I had the main key with me which had the alarm immobiliser short circuit key attached (can be used by inserting in the socket located in the glove compartment - and it switches off the alarm). Tried re-setting the alam but the key still does not work.

    strangely I had the driver electric window freeze open an hour earlier! - not sure if its all connected electrically ?

Mercedes c200 sport ignition key will not turn in the ignition to start the car, it will unlock and turn off alarm

The EIS (Electronic Ignition Switch) is malfunctioning. You will have to replace the EIS and take the car to a dealer to reprogram the keys.

Ignition: when switch on the key model W 202 1996

C200?

Is your 2nd key fob giving you the same problem?

Have you change the battery inside the key fob?


Check the mirror for alarm/immobilize indicator.

If you using a dead key fob then alarm system will immobilize the ignition system.

Mercedes 1999 c200 key fob

Hello Haq!
Could it be the key just needs re-coding? maybe you are worrying to much as £177 would be about right as that would need coding etc., Try phoning your local Merc dealer or take the key and V5 to them for coding (Hopefully)
Good Luck!
