07 c230 cd changer question HELP

hi i recently got a c230 and it dose not have a cd changer in it. so i got one off ebay and got the cd changer kit at the dealer for 80bucks. i had some question i hooked everything up but it still says "NO CDC" also another question where do the blue blk wire go? there is a empty slot on the harness do i just plug it in there? if anyone has any pics that would be great. also thanks in advance for the help.

You got the CD Changer off ebay? Or from the enterprise loaner car?
The keys are a dead giveaway. Hell, maybe they won't notice.

What year is your C class? An 07 changer is plug & play on 05 and newer. Whats the part number of the CD changer? Also if your car did not come with a cd changer I think the dealer may need to enable that function to recognize the changer.

its a 07. car did not come with a changer. i think the model number for the changer is MC3520. also there was not wires or anything in the back or the HU so i had to go to the deal and get a cd changer kit(came with brackets,FO cable,and the power harness.)
