I fixed it ! Lint, dust, dirt had collected on the inside of the cracked key. After taking it apart I used a Q tip and rubbing alcohol to clean the inside. Haven't had the problem since!

Back in 2011 the ignition module died on my 99 c230. It was about 1700 bucks from the stealership to replace. Because the steering wheel was locked the tow truck operator took off the rear wheel and used a "spinner" to spin the rear hub telling the sensor to unlock the steering wheel. It worked, not sure where one gets the spinner device, never seen one before or since, but it would be useful if the steering wheel gets locked up.

The EIS Module is going bad. EIS recognizes the right key in the ignition and removes the steering wheel lock. Its that simple.

You need TK replace the steering lock motor. The car checks the steering lock before it starts along with other check, immobiliser etc. The lock is located at the bottom of the steering shaft, little tap with a small hammer will get you out of trouble till it totally packs up and you get it replaced

Thanks, I do love this car. Never had an issue again with the key. It was a weird few days but it decided to start the next day. Seems like it wanted a day off. Lol. Now it is in storage due to some guy crushing the front end with his ram.

There is a laser inside the key fob that communicates with the ignition switch I had come across that sometimes there is debris inside the key fob blocking the laser, try open the key fob and clean it inside most of the time it fixes the issue.. there are videos of people doing this,, is a very common problem with Mercedes and the old key fob design

Works like a charm, thanks to neccesity and the brilliance of a smart man. I struggled taking out the motherboard and you don't want to mess it up. So I decided slide a sharp small knife on the other side of the white plastic away from the motherboard and turn it slightly so that there was enough space to slide the thick paper which I just folded twice. Then I took a razor and cut the remaining paper so I could close the key. So it can be done without taking the motherboard out.

Old video, but So weird man. My c280 would do the same for years. My technique was put the key in *slightly turn it while pressing the unlock button. Boom every time lol I guess I never had to worry about someone stealing my car. But It was fixed when the key fob chip went bad and a new one was ordered 🤷🏾♂️

@@youngmack5206 I changed the key fob battery, and got the car to start in drive or neutral. I noticed it wont start because it technically didn't shut off and lock. The car shut off but when I took the key out the steering wheel didn't lock. Mess with it and get it to lock then remove the key and try to start it again.

Joseph Lewis Hello! I have a 2000-year cl 500 with a similar problem. Try cleaning the key and the starter lock sensor. Look at the batteries and the battery's battery charge. Sometimes it helps with the hair dryer for a short time to heat the starter lock. If you do not help then either the key or the EIS system or the ECU system is bad. If there is a secondary battery in E class, check the battery charge. Greeting
