Thanks. That's a different part though. I'm after the unit installed in the roof with the light etc. Big thanks to sjmaxwell for the Dronsfields recommendation! They have one and it should be on its way to me for about £60! Also spoken with a Mercedes technician who says if I can replace the...

Mercedes wanted about £340. Another local place we know and are friends with said £310 but they weren't 100% if it would need programming or not... Does anyone know? And waiting on a call back from Dronsfields... Thanks! Hadn't heard of them

Thanks! Assumed there would only be one or two variations. Don't have vin to hand but was planning on calling the dealer tomorrow for a price. I expect they will be expensive but not sure where else to try?

It isn't too much hassle to strip it down and check after a few days to be fair. Just not sure on the cost of the unit. Getting one from a scrappy would be ideal as it would be cheaper and very little concern if it were to go pop again

That's what I'm leaning towards - simple failure on the PCB not caused by anything 'external' but my electrical knowledge is lacking a bit to confirm that for sure.

I think you responded while I was outside messing about with it. Update! The OCP is fried for sure - that's the cause of the smoke. Only issue is, I don't know if that just happened (if that's even possible just with age / heat maybe?) or is there some underlying cause that has made the OCP go...

Sorry I misunderstood your post when I read it. I took it as I need to find the power lead for the OCP...now I understand you mean that IS what I've found and the one that's causing it to go pop. So obviously me testing with the other connections plugged in and saying it didn't pop was a...

I should add that the overhead interior lights now no longer work. So I assume it is the OCP itself that has fried.

To help explain see below. So there's 5 connections (one empty) from drivers side to passenger side. If number 5 (seems to have some relation to the auto lights as they become unavailable when this is unplugged) is unplugged, the fuse does not blow. As soon as this is plugged in and a fuse is...

Thanks for the very detailed response! Logged a warranty inspection with AutoGlass but not sure when they are going to be able to come out - they're looking into it as urgent. Do you know how the OCP is removed and roughly where the power feed for it runs?? Is it near the windscreen and...

Hi all, Hoping somebody has seen similar before or can point me in the right direction. Will try to explain as best as I can. So my mum got in the car to drive to town and returned quite quickly saying there's a message on the dash saying along the lines of "hazard light system malfunctioning"...

Car was collected today Thanks for all the advice. May seem like I've gone against the majority but it will very rarely be used by the family member in convertible form so the seats / air scarf are a non-issue and the price was good for the mileage and age Will be sure to get the rear...

Thanks for all responses The last service was 3k miles ago in June No parking sensors, heated seats or nav... Mercedes say they can supply the box for nav for £500 all in... Just need to have a think and decide if that's the car to go for or something else Thanks again :)

Hi all, As above, looking at an SLK250 for a family member The one in question is a 2012, 26.6k mile example SLK250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY AMG Sport 7G-Tronic Plus Questions (if someone may know the answer, haven't got round to visiting the dealer yet): - Do they have sat nav, heated...
