Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to program the key to open the tailgate of the Mercedes Vito in two different ways: you can use the same key to open either the entire tailgate or just the rear window. This can be done by programming the key each time according to your needs, simply by inserting the key into the ignition and pressing both buttons for unlocking the tailgate simultaneously until the indicator light flashes briefly.

This is the signal that the state has changed; in the same way, you can switch from full tailgate opening to just the rear window opening and vice versa, depending on your current needs.
