It is located as shown in the attached picture. Install a new 40A fuse for the compressor (Fuse f108)

2006 ml 500
hi, new to this,
but im having the same problems in my 2006 ml500. my compressor seems to power on and ride ok, but wont rise when you push the botton. after 5-10 minutes of driving the "visit workshop" warning comes on. I have changed both front suspension shocks/bags in the past year... not sure what else could be the prob... any help would be appreciated...
