I wanted to check the fuse for my eyebrows on top of the headlights however i can't find the numbered listing of what fuse is what ??

I had found the fuse box in the engine compartment and popped it open however it doesnt list what fuse is for what component ....... would anyone know where i can find this ? Owner's manual doesnt indicate it either

Thank you in advance !

That's where i thought you would find that info. If it's not there, maybe you can call the dealer/parts dept & ask them.

omgitselaine

Yeah one would think huh ?? All other manual's have that diagram or picture of the fuse box and all the fuses numbered and it would tell you what each fuse is for what item but nope not MB's

Incredibly complicated. Will take you 20 minutes to figure it out. But here it is.

Elaine, where in No. Jersey?

omgitselaine

Thank you Bill I actually found the little sheet but guess where ............. in the trunk with the spare tire WTF !?!?

Now that I have the listing for the fuses ........... would anyone know which one would apply for the eyebrows ??

Headlamp Flasher ?
Headlamp Range adjustment ?

Thank you again !

Oh Bill ......... i'm by the Paramus area with 3 Malls within 5 minutes of me yay !!

Spec_Davis

did you blow a fuse?

Rogwp

Unlikely with 3 malls to choose from

How do you know you blew a fuse?

omgitselaine

It's really weird cause when i shut off the car my passenger side eyebrow lights would stay on sometimes then shut off ??? I'm walking away from the car then i'll all of a sudden turn around and i see it on .... then off uughhhhh ??

I just don't want it to be left on and have it drain the battery so i was hoping to pull out the fuse first until i get into the MB dealer to look at ?? Riding without the eyebrows is actually no big deal for me ??

Thank you in advance !!

Mr_Clifton

I had the same problem too. The best I could figure a solution was... My wife uses the lights in automatic mode, but then turns the knob to 0. I noticed the flicker and put it back on A. The problem seemed to go away

Curious what caused it though

omgitselaine

I'll try as suggested ... Thank you. I have my appointment tomorrow Wednesday morning and will let you know what they say.

I just feel funny cause i'm constantly checking the eyebrows to see if they flicker on and off as if a gremlin is playing games with me uughh

Acapulco Bill

Maybe they are winking at you. hehe Paramus, I did an Opera festival there once, in another lifetime. Bizet´s Carmen actually. Lived in Moorestown So. Jersey 20 years before moving to Mexico.

What kind of bulbs you have installed on the eyebrows?

omgitselaine

LED's from Mike. I honestly do not think it has anything to do with the bulbs since i ran about 8 plus months with them on and no issues until just a few days ago ?

tanktube67

You may want to swap them with the OEM bulbs before taking it to the dealer 99% of the time the dealer will void your warranty for not using OEM equipment.

omgitselaine

OMG i know and it's such a pain especially since my ' car guy ' isnt around to switch them back soo right now i still have the LEDs and if the below suggestion from Mr Clifton works out i'm hoping to just cancel my appointment tomorrow so i can avoid of hearing the grief from the dealership



Wow this seems to work ? I usually flip the lights back and on .... causing the flicker but wen i have it on A and turn the car off there is no flicker at all yay I'll be headed in sand out this afternoon and if it stays good this way i simply will cancel tomorrow and keep an eye on it.

Thank you Mr Clifton for the suggestion !

Spec_Davis

who is your "Car Guy"?

omgitselaine

One of the guys from around my neighborhood who's always willign to give a hand

omgitselaine

Well just a quick update ....

Joe wasn't able to drop off the car at MB since he really needed it for work and they had no loaners so we rescheduled our appointment for next Thursday. The good news is that since i followed Mr Clifton's suggestion of leaving the knob on A the issue has gone away

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it stays this way yay !! Don't you loove how we help one another on these forums !!

FAneek

Hmmm I'm having the same problem...Imma try this

Mr_Clifton

Glad I could help, and kinda scared it's happening to other people. I wonder what's wrong? I screwed around with it for like 20 minutes at the gas station until I found setting it to A made it go away. Hope it doesn't mean there's another issue

Let us know what happens when you drop the car off at MB You got at least 2 other people it's happening to

I'm having the exact same problem. Does it ever occur to you that the problem might lie between the light knob? I would have to play around the light knob at times as well. As suggested leaving the dial on 'A' would solve the problem.

omgitselaine

Well ....... i never thought it may be the light knob being the issue since it's just the passenger side eyebrows that were lighting up thus i figured it may be a loose wiring for eyebrows and the knob not being the issue ?

Guess only once the tech takes a peek we'll know huh ??

I appreciate everyone's thoughts and input regarding this matter !!
