cl55 door wiring harness w215

Hi,

I am suffering from faulty wiring in the door hinge which I am in the process of fixing however I have two questions for anyone in the know / that has done it before:-

1) The airbags. Not wishing to blow my face off - is it safe to splice and extend the SRS wiring to the door side airbag / is there any chance of setting it off during the splicing?

2) If the window doesnt go fully up on shutting the door /locking is it likely the box of tricks in the door has been damaged by funky currents and shorts?

3) I was an idiot during the initial splice and while carefully colour coded my extension wire I failed to realise there were three identical brown and two identical grey with black stripe wires in one of the slimer cable groups. They appear to be two constant lives and three earths. Without having to trace all the way under the seat and to the mid car fuse box can anyone confirm they are interchangeable as there only appears to be one fuse for the right seat controls and it appears to kill power to both grey wires?

many thanks

1. Disconnect the battery and you will be fine.

2. You will probably find you need a replacement window control module. It's located under the rear drivers side seat and is around £250 from mb.

3. Sorry but I have no idea

Hope to help!
