Rodney, have you ever experienced shifter lights LED (that shows P R N D) not working?
I tried another lights but still not working. I think the shifter might be experiencing some issues
DOes it show the proper gear selection on the cluster MFD? If so, then the AGS is working correctly and it's likely just a loos connection in the LED unit on the shift surround. Mine had a weak solder join where the wiring harness connects to ti. I took it apart and resoldered it.
Actually, the indicator LEDs are't even part of the shifter. They are part of a small unit that just snaps into the chrome trim surrounding the shifter. It's easy to remove - just pry up gently from underneath with a plastic wedge. Below are my photos of the part that I took to help someone with a sticky C/S button:
I took the shifter assembly out. The LED part you show in the pic above has two wire harnesses. One harness is for the C (comfort) S (sport mode and other harness is for LED. The LED harness is the one connected to the shifter mechanism . I tried two different indicators and none worked. So i think it might be grounding or shifter electronics.
I need real help with a new issue. My parking brakes were not working so I took the rear wheels and brake rotors out and found out that the previous owner has completely removed the brake shoes assembly except for the cables. I purchased the brake shoes and hardware but still missing some parts that I'm buying from mbpartsworld.com. Do you have pictures for the emergency brakes so I can put back together
Just bought a 2004 CLK320 Convertible 2 months back. Car was perfect until the wiper stopped working suddenly. Initially, the wiper wipes once at position 1 when I activate the right turn indicator. Now it stopped totally. No wiping action regardless of position 1 to 3. Mist and washer fluid pump don't work too. However, turn indicator and high beam works though. I've changed the 40 amps fuse but to no effect. Should I try changing the relays? I hope I don't need to change the combination switch though. Appreciate your advise please. Thanks!
I guess you fixed your problem by now. I've had the same . Problem was the interlock switch on the bonnet (hood) catch. I filled my washer bottle closed very thing up and hey presto no washers or wipers. Searched the internet and found a blog describing my problem. The guy went to a Merc dealership who just opened the bonnet and slamed it shut. Did the same to mine and the washers and wipers started working again. I think its an unwanted feature. Surly the bonnet open lamp should be on the same switch so at least the user has a clue whats wrong.
Great post. This is exactly why "both" wipers and washer were inop on mine.
great and timely post. .I had been working the no wipers or washers problem all day. I cleaned the switch with wd40 and batter cleaner, slammed the hood shut and every thing worked. thanks!
