courtesy

Hi folks, had my SL for a couple of weeks now and am over the moon with it. However, the courtesy light does not work on the passenger's side footwell (I've tried new bulbs and the drivers side works fine). Has anyone else encountered this issue and found an easy fix? I'm reluctant to start...

Hi, I have a 2008 CL500 that has developed faults with the automatic and courtesy functions on the drivers door. I have keyless go. Problem 1) when you grab the door handle the door opens, but the window does not drop. The door mirror also doesn't fold out. Problem 2) sometimes the door...

I just got the c240 back from the garage after dead battery and old boot lock nightmare- just wondering if the courtesy light could have caused this? I changed the bulbs front and rear before the drain but they acted normally by dimming then switching off - surely no light means no circuit or am...

i did find this thread from 2009 but i just wanted a bit more up to date info if you don't mind :) the CLK is going into Derby MB for it's 4 year/B service this week & it will cost £15 for insurance cover on the courtesy car they provide. i've checked with my insurer Admiral & i wouldn't be...

The C32 has gone into Derby benz for a B service and I've got one of their cars. This is odd but I think the dealers deserve a pat on the back for the quality of the cars they provide. The three times my cars been to the dealers I've had: 320 CLS 220 cdi C class estate (in red, best colour)...

My son Charlie asked to record the car for a school project; to make a video using different techniques. Well this was the result of Sundays's brief recordong and i think he did quite well - considering he doesn't have a video camera and he was using his Panasonic Bridge camera that is really...

Ive been told by a MB employee that MB dealers will offer a courtesy car whilst your car is in for a service but only if you ask for one. Id be interested in a demo C63:D and Im thinking they will think its a natural progression from my current MB car when I take mine in for its A-service...

What controls how long the courtesy light stays on? It works fine from the passenger door but is random from the drivers door, stays on sometimes, sometimes not and how long it does stay on is totally random. Also the light at the bottom of the drivers door doesn't work. The bulb is fine it...

Hi.. got a problem with an e320 cdi, the interior lights don't come on when you open a door, or press the remote - the ambient lighting also doesn't work. You can manually turn on the lights (& reading lights) front and rear, it's just the 'courtesy lights' that don't seem to be operating...

OK I have had my 2006 SLK for just 1 week and so far it is great, much better than the old version SLK 230 I had, well gearbox and roof works fine so far! Anyway, car doesnt appear to have the special light pack as there are no lights in the doors but there are map reading lights in the rear...

While I was in an MB shop for used spare parts,the shop owner gave me 4 lights for the 4 doors of my W124 sedan to install them,he told me the wiring is there ready for these lights. I know the wiring was not there. I decided to retrofit the drivers courtesy door light only as a start. After...

Previous experience was not good with one of these as it seemed to wander all over the place. Was suggested by Bodyshop that was new and tyres - Continentals - needed to bed in. Just given this one back - 59 plate with 2500 miles - and experience was much much better than before. Still...

So MB decided that they would repair 70% of the wife's car and we'd have to fork out for the remainder. I asked if we could have a car whilst hers is away. (Probably be a week) He had to check and said he'd phone me back. They have agreed, but we have to insure it...? :crazy: I can't say that...

Someone went into my merc so i got a courtesy car. A friend of mine borrowed the car saying he was insured to drive any car third party due to his insurance. Someone hit into him and he gave his details. We've now realised my friend was not insured to drive hire cars. What's going to...

My 2001 CLK 230 Kompressor has developed a short circuit which keeps blowing fuse No5 (5A in the boot). The circuit comprises boot light, rear interior light, & alarm system. I have checked the boot release sw.,boot & interior ligts which are ok, no shorts, lamps ok & connections etc in good...

hi all, just bought a nice 2002 210 estate, will get round to posting some pics of it soon, but its a nice standard 240 elegance. One niggly problem with it, apart from some of the more common ones such as LCD going in instrument panel, that i think is probably a door switch, but not sure...

Apologies if this has been posted before..... This weekend we have been given an 09 Reg CLK280 Cabriolet as a courtesy car whilst our A Class gearbox problem is sorted! It has almost all the options including Sports pack, heated seats, COMAND etc etc. Absolutely lovely but 22mpg takes a bit...

Hi all, I have been offered 4 courtesy lights for the doors of W124 ,my car is W124 E220,the price is almost zero ( almost free 4 lights),but the question is,is the wiring inside the doors available so it will be just plug and play,or do I have to remove the door cards and search power wires...

I got a new courtesy car today from Mercedes Benz of Bradford. Long story short but I’ve been having some electrical issues with my Viano of late, a recurring intermittent fault. 3 times I’ve had it in and 3 times I picked it up only for it to reoccur. As it’s a working vehicle I asked for a...
