The anti-theft system is likely the problem. It needs to be reset.

Testimonial: "Right on, but I had gotten the answer from the MB forum earlier and reset the alarm by locking and unlocking the door. As the original post said it was a KEYED car, no remote. Thank you, Jim"

SOURCE: need car radio code to reset stereo

Hi if its the original stereo then have a look inside the owners hand book have a look inside the back and front cover, it usually comes written on a piece of card but this usually gets lost so people write it inside the covers.

If how ever its not written their then the only place you can get it from is by taking the car and the owners documents to your nearest main dealers and then they will give you the correct code.

Its the only way of getting the code they do it like this to stop thieves stealing the stereo then just getting the code and selling the stereo on so you have to take your car and any documents you have to prove ownership of the car, they will then give you the code.
They wont charge for giving you the code just make sure you write it down in case you ever need it in the future.

let me know how you get on or if you need further assistance ok

2010 G37 - battery was dead - jumped it off and drove it for twenty minutes. Next morning it wouldn't start and now it wont stop clicking (like a relay). Any suggestions?

if the battery goes dead or low it must be recharged with a charger, driving the car will not recharge it properly. The alternator is only meant to maintain the battery, not recharge it. Get the battery recharged and verified and then try again.

My mercedes sat for 10 months while I recuperated from injuries. The battery was completely dead. Remote didn't even work. We were able to jumpstart it with battery cables but it won't keep running. Dead...

You will burn out your alternator if you keep on doing this.The alternator is not a charger. If you have a dead battery you should always charge it overnight on a charger.To keep the battery fresh all that you have to do is disconnect the terminals.Yes this is normal because the car has clocks and alarms that drain power even when the key is off. If you let the battery set to long while it is drained it will not take a charge.

Car won't start even after new battery purchase

Alternator problem, the alternator charges the battery when car is running, so it has probably died now. Was working at reduced capacity for a while, which is why you were only getting a partial charge for some time. Now you have an open circuit completely as alternator has failed completely, time for a visit to an auto electrician. PS replacing acid in battery with distilled water is not a good idea. It probably was time for a new battery anyway.
