Hello.
I got 2002 C sport Coupe.

The wiring is designed to last the life of the vehicle. It is possible to modify the wiring and maintain both functionality and reliability, but proper procedures, implementation and experience are required.

There is every indication that those essential elements were not on-hand for this modification.

At this point, the best option is to locate an experienced shop, perhaps even the MB dealership, to resolve the problems.

A distant second choice is to attempt to return the vehicle to the original configuration. The plus side is that it seems likely that any possible additional damage will be negligible in the grand scheme.

Good luck.
