![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Does anyone knows which blue connector/w yellow wires on the CAN DISTRIBUTOR PANEL is the radio plug. I am trying to re-install a vim from midcity that was apparently working fine, but was unaware it was even in the vehicle until my left vent motor stop working due to the fact that whomever had the car before me block the left vent with the module and mercedes remove it as a rogue module .The pic from midcity's website look different from mines. same three plugs but spaced out a little different and their instruction are trial by error to see which one is the radio plug. I dont want to produce error codes for anything else. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

it is a trial by error that will not keep error codes on the dash if you follow the manual. I am sure hundreds have been sold and i know I have done quite a few without any issues.
the other option is to remove the Comand while the vehicle is off and disconnect all the yellow connectors at the CAN block and meter the wires from the Comand CAN input to the block.
either way, you will still get the same results but will now have an hour of your life back, which will be precious to you in the long run
