Have had my 2015 E - Class for two years. I have only just noticed that the ambient lights are on permanently. Does anyone know if this should be the case? I have lights switched to auto and they are not on but ambient lighting is. Thank you.
I noticed that one of the rear ambient lights wasn't working so decided to investigate.
Turned out to be a simple fix.
The tracks on the connector had worn through and were no longer making contact with the electrical supply.
A pot of silver conductive paint and 10 minutes work fixed it...
Hi,
recently I started receiving inaccurate outside temperature readings.
After checking
I discovered it cracked on the tip. It need to be replaced.
I have found some spare parts on eBay but not sure if correct.
Could anybody tell me the correct MB part number please?
Kind regards
Yesterday I became the proud owner of a wonderful S350D AMG Line, 2014 make.
Being the simpleton that I am, shortly after revving the engine and all the goodies, I wanted to admire the interior, sadly I was disappointed to find Ambient Lighting option is nowhere inside Vehicle Settings, all I...
I have 2015 model SL400. There should be 3 ambient lighting settings effectively red, orange, yellow. It only has 2 colours although there are 3 available in the settings. Its a new car and MB cant fix the fault on STAR and have passed it to MB HQ who want pictures!
As its a 80 mile round...
I had a look (laying on the floor looking up!) - and the ambient lighting strips seem to be fitted into the wooden door trims and around the dash but I dont have access to them through the computer system. Does anyone know if these are, or could be connected to work as an after...
Hi all, completely new to MB ownership, and picked up a 2009 CLS320 two weeks ago. I have turned off the ambient lighting using the steering wheel controls, and the front 'pod' has gone out. The rear one however still comes on when the headlights are switched on. There are two buttons on the...
Hi all,
I joined the forum a few weeks ago to check out your thoughts regarding the C350e and found the posts in this area to be most helpful, thank you. As I haven’t quite worked my way around the site I haven’t managed to find the treat regarding the displaying of the Ambient outside...
Hi hope people of this wonderful forum can help?
I have recently bought 6 month old c250 sport estate and it has no ambient lighting. I am completely gutted as all I want is blue light in my cockpit at night. Please can someone advise how i can get ambient lighting fitted into my new car? Do...
Hi people :)
This is my very first car forum I'm joining so forgive me if I my questions are painfully obvious...
I've just bought a Mercedes c250 Coupe (2012 model)... I've been looking at all the new 2015 models are they come with the amazing ambient lighting kit.
Is there any way I...
Good evening chaps,
As per the title. I've gone through the appropriate menus, the selection is on and the setting is level 5 but it ain't working. Is there an override switch in the cabin.
I've checked the manual and can't seem to find one
Thanks
Has anyone else noticed that although the majority of the ambient lighting colour and brightness is changeable, some isn't? Such as the amber line that surrounds the front seat position switches? When ALL amber is selected it all matches but I like the blue which looks odd against the bits...
Hi Guys
This is my second try of getting some help on a Ambient lighting problem in my dad's W221 2008 S320.
As you can see in the pictures, the LED strips are bright at some parts and very dim (like dots) at other parts.
The main LED lighting across the centre console is bright near...
Hi all
My dad just purchased an 08 W221 S320 CDI fitted with ambient lighting option. I would like to enquire on (which i think) two problems:
1. Some parts of the ambient lighting strips are brighter than other parts of the ambient lighting strips.
2. The ambient lighting strips are not as...
Hi, I have a fault with the outside ambient temperature display or lack of it. Iam only getting 0.73v between the two wires which I suspect should be around 5v so Iam assuming I have a power supply problem. I can not see this having its own fuse although Iam not sure which fuse it uses, I have...
