Talking InstallUniversity.com - MB DIY Site Refreshed

For those that still visit the site and have not given up hope since we have not added a new install in some time, don't worry. We have just refreshed the site with a new look and will be putting up several installations documents (mainly service events) very soon for the W203.

For those of you that don't know about the site. It is a small attempt at a DIY site when I have a problem with our '02 C240.

Submissions welcome! Just read the rules for submitting them.

You can check out the updated site here. www.installuniversity.com/mb

Regards,

Eric

RE: MB DIY Refreshed

I looked at the DIY submissions to your website and I have questions (to the persons who submitted it or anybody) on the "Grab Handle" procedure.

Is it not necessary to disable the SRS when doing this procedure? If yes, where is the "kill switch" for the SRS located?

Thanks is advance.

RE: MB DIY Refreshed

Let me re-state my questions on my previous post.

Is it REALLY not necessary to disable the SRS when doing this procedure?

If it is RECOMMENDED to disable the SRS, where is the "disable switch"?

Again, thanks in advance.

There is no kill switch and disabling SRS is not required.
