Im looking for some advice please. Car is a W204 C220 2008. Yesterday everything was ok.
At 5pm last night I went to drive home and the car would not start. The headlights came on, mirrors folded out, door unlocked and the speedo dial lit up with the mileage etc - but nothing else works.
The car does not crank over and all I can hear is a clicking sound behind the dash. My first thought was a battery problem so a local garage changed the battery but no joy. He checked the fuses and all ok. Another local garage has a diagnostic machine and he's going to try this tomorrow to see if it will give him info on the issue, but has anyone else suffered this issue? Ive tried both keys, still nothing.
Im sure it must be an electrical issue but my nearest MB dealer is 100 miles away and they have not been very helpful so far in that all they have advised is to get it to them. If all else fails I have RAC cover and they can get it to the dealer but I wondered if anyone else had seen the same issue and what the solution was.
Any help would be much appreciated.
