Model: Mercedes Clk A208, W208, C208 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Door lock

In this short guide, we will see the main steps on how to disassemble and replace the lock cylinder of the Mercedes CLK. First, we open the front door on the driver's side and start unscrewing the side screws of the lock, after removing the door panel; we push inside the hole to extract the lock cylinder from the outside, disconnecting the electrical connector, as shown in the video. At this point, we carry out the repair or replacement of the cylinder (in case of replacement, it will be necessary to also replace the ignition key).
