Command Retrofit and ICELINK PROBLEMS! PLEASE HELP!
Hey guys
Just recently purchased a CLK55 AMG 04
Ordered Euro Nav and Icelink for my IPOD
Had them installed today from a very tech savy person.
I watched him install both the Command and the ICELINK and he did it 100 percent right (i made sure we followed instructions)
The Command unit works as far as NAV/CD/ and Radio but there is a major problem.
NO SOUND WHATSOEVER, and my stearing column and instrumental cluster is not recognizing the stereo anymore. VERY WIERD.
Will a trip to mercedes for a coding get this back in working order?????
ALSO, my ipod notices my icelink and mercedes, but the Command does not recognize a cd changer (icelink) therefore I cannot control the ipod.'
Will a coding help this also? Please let me know your thoughts on what I should do. Thanks!

In short: HAVE HIM CHECK THE C CONNECTOR as that is not connected properly...the C connector has the wiring for CANBUS (which is why the comand is not recognised by the IC anymore, why it doesn't turn on/off per ignition key and why the NAV does NOT work properly due to the fact that it doesn't get a speedpulse) and the C connector has the WAKE UP wire plus the POWER and GROUND for the CDc which are the cause of a failing D2B ring and thus NO SOUND from the BOSE AMP.

Steve,
Thanks for the help.
We took everything apart again and back together and made sure all the wires were going to their correct areas and still nothing.
We soudered (sp?) the orginal C connecter into the new harness I bought (c1 and c2) and still no sound or no recognition from the internal computer.
Could it possibly be a bad harness? Everything esle was pure plug and play.
I will take it to mercedes this weekend, should be an expensive fix, but a fix nontheless.
