Hi, Your door panel being removed is probably your No 2. problem I can confirm that removing the rear door panel on my w202 (I was messing around changing speakers etc,) caused the indicators to not flash when locking the doors with the remote. The doors locked OK but the indicators didn't...

Saw 1 P yesterday - bet it cost more than that:eek: ! GB

Anyone else on here amazed at the stupidity of placing pedestrian crossings right on busy roundabouts as they are now doing around where I live? I am usually concentrating on traffic entering the roundabout to my right, looking for a space to pull out into, but I have on a couple of occasions...

I would tend to agree - the owners are the ones to blame when a dog goes "bad". Classic example of this was a past neighbour of mine who bought one of these Samoyed type dogs and did not have a clue about how to train it or control it. The dog is now 5 years old and still cr**s in their...

Hi, Possibly not much use - BUT! I have a c200 W202 and went thru this recently. The green/mauve wire on iso plug position 1 is a speed pulse wire on mine - I spent some considerable time trying to locate a useable signal from various locations before I realised that the green/mauve wire...

Mickl, Did you get to the root of this? - my w202 did this when I took the rear door cards off to mess about with speakers. I came to the conclusion that the rear door was registering as not properly closed because the plastic plate by the lock (which normally presses on the rear door switch...

Thanks guys, I had almost given up hope of a reply - but as usual some of you came through!! :rock: I will definitely have a look at replacing my steering damper - It seems fairly easy to replace myself and at 30 odd quid it will not break the bank. Just for the record, I spent Saturday...

I know this has been raised before - but none of the posters who have described this problem have actually come back to say what the source of the squeak was, or how they got rid of it! I have a squeak / creak noise from the steering wheel of my w202 which is noticeable at low speeds - It...

Hi folks, Only been here a while but.... thanks to this forum I have now sorted out a head unit speed pulse wire problem on my w202, installed some cool puddle lights, fitted a full bonnet liner and have today ordered the official pedals, so thanks to all for all the info. My local stealership...

OOPS - I should have done a better job of searching on the forum.!! I have now found ouyt there are only 3 speaker mounting screws - and having tried again I found that the speaker was being held (rather firmly) by the wiring rather than a fourth screw!:o Looks like it will be a much easier...

Hi Folks, Can anyone tell me if it is possible to remove the oem speakers / mounts from the front doors of a 98 w202 without taking the entire door card off? Can the bottom section of the door card (with side pocket) be removed or does the whole lot have to come off? I had a look at the...

Well - I found the problem!! After trying unsuccessfully to get any voltage reading from the green/purple wire behind my head unit using a multimeter (and a led), I had come to the conclusion that there must be something disconnected at the other end of the wire. So - last night I decided to...

Thanks Leperking and richard - I'll give both these a try - I have both a multimeter and some 12v leds lying around. :D Let you know how I get on GB

Thank for offer Alfie - but I am in North East of Scotland! :D Seems to be a fair bit of confusion on speed pulse generation on W202s in their various guises. GB I'll keep working on it - it won't beat me!!!! :mad:

Thanks Fred - but no apparent difference on min or max setting! From other posts on here, that green / purple wire at pin 1 should be the speed pulse wire - Blaupunkt support guy confirmed auto sound increase should be set to max for largest increase. Does not appear to be doing anything -...
