Hello everyone, I’m having a little problem.
I have a 2000 CL500 which I’ve recently acquired. When I got it home, the central locking decided to stop working. It was working when I collected the car but decided to stop after a short journey.
Today I found two severed wires in the door and decided to repair the break to see if anything happened.
There was no change so I decided to inspect all the fuses. Painstakingly pulling them out one at a time and immediately replacing them.
The central locking still doesn’t work, but after checking the fuses, the alarm has now started to work, arming and disarming with the key fob.
However my day has gone from bad to worse as now I can’t engage the starter motor. The ignition lights up, and everything seems to work aside from the central locking and the starter.
Has anybody else ever had a problem like this? Or does anyone know how I can attempt to get the car to turn over?
Many thanks in advance, Nigel.
