What is the battery model for the Mercedes-Benz C200L key?

The battery model is CR2032. It is a lithium manganese dioxide battery, named according to the IEC standard. Among them: C- indicates the chemical battery system with lithium metal as the negative electrode and manganese dioxide as the positive electrode; R- indicates that the battery is cylindrical in shape, with F used as a substitute if it is square; 20 indicates the battery diameter is 20mm; 32 represents the battery height is 3.2mm. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, the endpoint voltage is 2.0V, and the rated capacity is approximately 200mAh. CR2032 typically has a lifespan of 5 years. If the manufacturer's production level is not high or quality control is poor, its lifespan will be significantly shortened. Domestic first-tier brand batteries can generally guarantee this lifespan. Under ideal usage conditions (sealed, room temperature, no moisture interference, etc.), the lifespan can be further extended to 8 years or even 10 years. The usage time of a car remote key battery is closely related to the frequency of use. The more frequently it is used, the shorter the usage time will be. If the remote key battery runs out of power, the mechanical key can be used directly to open and start the vehicle. Car remote keys use button batteries, mainly models such as CR2016, CR2025, CR2032, and CR2450. For the specific model used in each key, owners can refer to the battery model in the user manual for replacement. Button-type CR2016 battery: The usage rate of car key remotes is very high, making it one of the most common remote battery types. The voltage of this battery is 3V, while most car key batteries are powered by 9V, so all three batteries need to be replaced each time. Examples include Guangben, Toyota, Volkswagen, Mazda, etc. CR2016 specifications: battery diameter is 20mm, thickness is 1.6mm. Button-type CR2025 battery: Its usage rate is much lower than CR2016. However, it is still used in some car keys. It is thicker than CR2016 but has a relatively higher storage capacity. CR2025 specifications: battery diameter is 20mm, thickness is 2.5mm. This type of battery is also commonly used in audio remotes. Button battery CR2032: Its thickness is twice that of CR2016. The 3V-CR2032 lithium manganese battery belongs to the lithium-manganese dioxide structure. The positive electrode material is chemically very stable manganese dioxide, the negative electrode material is lithium metal, and the electrolyte is a lithium battery electrolyte. The main components of the electrolyte are ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, propylene carbonate, and lithium perchlorate. It is shaped like a button, hence the name button lithium battery or lithium manganese button battery. Button battery CR2450: Compared to the other three models, it is thicker and larger, with a diameter of 24.5mm and a height of 5.0mm. The rated current value for CR2450 is 0.2mA, mainly used in low-power electronic products. Generally, such batteries can provide an output current of 0.001mA to 5mA, with a continuous output current of up to 15mA and a flash output current of up to 30mA, meeting the requirements of most small electronic products for light emission, sound production, and RF output.

I remember the key battery for the Mercedes-Benz C200L is usually a 3V CR2032 coin cell, which is quite common in many vehicle models. Having driven this car for several years, I've found the battery typically lasts about one and a half to two years. If the remote suddenly stops working—for instance, the unlock button becomes unresponsive—the first thing to check is whether the battery is dead. Replacement is straightforward: use a thin tool to pry open the key's back cover, and you'll see the battery compartment. When removing the old battery, pay attention to the positive and negative orientation. For the new CR2032, Duracell or Panasonic brands are more reliable and can be found in supermarkets or auto parts stores. After replacement, test the remote functions. A quick reminder: Mercedes keys have an intelligent system, so a dead battery won't affect the main key's ability to start the car, but regular battery changes can prevent emergencies. Since the battery model is standardized and counterfeit products are common, it's advisable to purchase from reputable sellers.
