1996 keyless in a w210- IR only?

Hi,

The keyless in my fathers new 96 e300d doesnt work. If I point it through the windshield right at the mirror sensor, all is well. But it doesnt seem to work through the side windows (Is there a handle sensor on the early w210 cars?) or from anywhere else.

Key and transmitter have hardly ben used at all, batteries fresh, nothing...

From doing a search, Ive seen that apparently 1995 cars (dont remember the model) were IR only. This would explain my operation... Are early w210 cars IR only?

Thanks,

JMH
