Push Start Stop Button Replacement for Mercedes SL-Class R231 (2013 to 2014)

Push Start/Stop Button Replacement for Mercedes SL-Class R231 (2013–2014)

The SL-Class R231 is a roadster with a full aluminium body, a panoramic retractable hardtop, and a cockpit-style interior that wraps the driver in tactile quality. The KEYLESS-GO start button sits at the centre of that experience — it is the tactile moment that begins every drive. When the button's chrome surround shows circumferential scratches or the cap face loses its original finish, it detracts from a cabin that was designed to impress at every touch point.

This replacement button restores the switch to its original R231 specification without the cost of a dealer visit.

Roadster Interior — Precision at Every Touchpoint

In a vehicle at the R231's price point, the interior finish is not incidental — it is a core part of the ownership proposition. The SL buyer expects the same quality of tactile experience throughout the cabin, from the steering wheel stitching to the gear selector to the KEYLESS-GO button. A worn start button is particularly visible in the cockpit layout, where the driver's eye naturally lands on the centre console area.

Button wear on the R231 is concentrated at the cap centre and the inner edge of the chrome bezel, where the finger makes the same contact motion every time. Polishing compounds and cleaning products do not address the underlying material loss — replacement is the correct fix.

What the Replacement Covers

The complete outer assembly: button cap, chrome bezel ring, and retention clip. The original connector plugs straight into the replacement. No recoding, no diagnostic work.

Installation

Access the button from behind the console fascia, unplug the connector, release the retention mechanism, and remove the old unit. Press the new button into position, reconnect, and test. Estimated time: 10 to 15 minutes.
