Hi All,

I recently had the common boot problem that was fixed by me playing around with the pin switch and now everything works as it should (from the key, the fob and the console) but I now have the console switch light permanently illuminated red. I presume that this means there is some sort of problem with the pin switch but does anyone know if that is definitely it?
I was thinking of maybe getting a pin switch from a scrappy or maybe removing mine and making sure all is well.
Ideas please?
 
It was the microswitch in the boot after all. £2.70 or so later from Mercedes and all is well again. I would seriously consider changing this in your C208 as they will go sooner or later and for the sake of under three pounds and a 2min job to replace it vs the boot not opening debacle its almost a no brainer.
