Hey I have an 09 C300 Mercedea that had front end damage not too bad and the dash airbag and steering wheel bag both blew up.
So I put the entire car together and now when I put the key into the ignition the car has its dashboard turn on, radio and everything. Once I try to start the vehicle AS SOON as I turn the key to start it my Fuse #7 (starter) instantly blows every single time and car won't even make a noise as in starter is clicking. The fuel pump and everything makes noise but I am wondering what could possibly be the problem. Please help..
Thank you!

The starter fuse blows because of a high amperage draw of the starter---have you disconnected the starter cables and tried to turn the starter by directly applying 12V to the starter.

Have you also checked the starter relay!!

Denis Gutsu

Yes I have, and the starter turns perfectly fine, also my next question is if I am low or am out of transmission fluid does that have any kind of roll in this either? I know it sounds stupid but I have no clue how MB dies their systems. Everything is on sensors.

Yes their are a lot of sensors, but you are drawing too much amperage, as previously stated, through your starter.

1st) Are you ABSOLUTELY SURE you have the right Fuse?
2nd) Just because it turns doesn't mean it's functioning properly. Could have a high draw. Not sure what they max out at amp wise though... Starfinder might be able to tell you MAYBE but I'm no where near my comp.
3rd) Check all fluids before attempting to run your vehicle.

Hope you get this started soon!
