electrical

Went to start the car yesterday (2008 C220) and got a message SRS restraint system failure visit workshop. Then lots of other electrical issues, won't start, radio doesn't work, seats won't move, steering wheel buttons don't work. I'm thinking battery might be dying but I'm not sure, any ideas...

Hi. This is my first post and hoping I can find an answer to my electrical problem. I collected my '04 SL55 AMG from its winter storage yesterday. The guy had put the trickle charger on the battery under the bonnet, not the one in the boot as I asked him to. 6 months later I've lost central...

Hey guys I have a 2002 final edition 230k w208. I swapped the battery out on Sunday after the original finally got killed off by the weather. Since then i've had some odd glitches with the electrics and I was hoping someone could help me out. For ease, i'll just list them. I'd really...

The engine (W210 E220 cdi) does not start after I removed the no1 and no4 injectors out, and refit them using new copper washers and bolts; the injectors were leaking a bit and this is something that I have done on this engine a few times over the years. I never had any problems starting the...

Hi I have left the above car in a garage for a while, I only get it out 4/5 times a year. So I disconnect the battery with an isolator. No problems for a couple of years. This time when I connected the battery I have SRS warning light, also noticed button on dash to lock doors and button to...

Hi, I'm new to this forum so please go easy on me!!! I have a B200 and recently i have noticed two strange things. 1. The Car alarm goes off randomly whilst sat on the drive way at home. 2. The red handbrake light and blue high beam dashboard lights flash intermittently whilst driving...

My SL was fine up until I took it off the road for 4 weeks as tax had run out. When I came to use it again I found the radio link wasn't working with the keys and I could only open the door using the infrared (holding key right next to the door handle). Once the door was open, I found that the...

Hello, Thanks in advance for any help! I was wondering if someone has any clue about this: -My electrical mirrors are folding in but not out. The point is when I bought the car they were fine although sometimes the folding out button was playing up, but after pressing a few times it...

Asking on behalf of a friend. He's got a 2007 CL63 AMG and last night it seems to have developed some worrying faults all at once. They seem to be electrical in nature. He was driving through the city centre and there was a warning come up stating shutdown the engine or COMMAND will...

I have a strange electrical fault on my 57 plate CLK 320 CDI On first (and second i think) click of key everything works fine, as in indicators, radio, windows, heater blower, temp and fuel gauge However, after crank and the engine starting everything fails to work and after a few seconds the...

I have a 2003 Mercedes C180 Coupe, with 79000 mileage. When the ignition is on, the Windows, sunroof, indicators work. But once you start the engine, the Windows sunroof indicators wipers horn don't work and the speedo doesn't work either. Headlights work, radio works CD changer never works...

Hi, my wife's c220 cdi amg line 58 plate has lost all electrical power twice now, while driving, both times in the dark, leaving her unable to see. Any ideas as to what this could be? Thanks

I've recently bought a 1998 E240 Elegance Auto Saloon. I'm pretty happy with it but it does have a few electrical faults which need addressing. 1) The ABS / BAS Warning lights & Dashboard messages appear intermittently, sometimes just after starting the car and sometimes after several miles...

Warning light on the dash says bulb gone so checked but bulb is ok. MB Medway checked the lamp holder, cleaned the contacts, checked the switch on the dash but no power to the bulb. Seems like the wiring between switch and lamp holder could be the issue and that involves exposing the whole...

I've had my C280 elegance of 12 months now and I've had a constant issue I can't seem to pinpoint. Every few weeks one of the windows will stop working as well as the front dome light,it also renders the IR sensors for the same side uselesstoo. Nothing blows and removing the earth for a few...

Electrical Faults list. Full red dash screen with battery icon & visit workshop. No wipers No indicators No headlights No windows No horn No hazards No heated seats No rear blind No heater motor No fuel gauge No central locking And a few more I cant remember right now...

Hi, Went to start the car, turned key fully and nothing. The mileage on the LCD screen comes on as normal, but it is the only visual i get; warning symbols like the handbrake etc don't come on and it doesn't even try to start the engine. Indicators, headlights and trip controls don't...

Hi all, I haven't been very active here of late owing to the fact that I parked up my 300TD a couple of years ago. It has been started and run regularly (every couple of weeks) however I have now noticed some electrical issues, briefly as follows: 1. Rear lights very dim, both tailights...

Indicators have stopped working although the hazards work, windows don't open, boot open button doesn't work and central locking doesn't work. All of this has happened simultaneously. I have visually checked all of the fuses but not with a meter. Any ideas what this could be? Thanks
