What to do if the Mercedes E-Class does not recognize the key?
Years 2016-2023

Answer

If the Mercedes E-Class does not recognize the key, neither the main nor the second, it could simply be the slightly discharged car battery. Try to detach it and reattach it after about ten minutes, if by doing so the key is recognized again, in all probability it is that. Otherwise it will be necessary to carry out a diagnosis in the workshop.
