That happened to me a year or so ago

Got my machanic to actuate it then disconnect so it wouldn't happen again

Lock the car with a normal remote. Then unlock. Valet should reset. Valet mode is designed so that when your man is left with just the green key he can't open anything.

Are you using the right key?

Mercedes have a separate chauffeur key that only actuates the main doors and ignition. It looks the same as the spare so if you mix them up you suddenly find you can get into the boot/glove box.

Might be the same for JAAAGs
