Fuse allocation chart for the front passenger side fuse box

hi guys,

I have no idea why mercedes makes this so hard, but there is no "paper" in my front fuse box or rear fuse box showing what fuse goes where. I would like a diagram of the fuse box with the "name" for what each fuse is for. I'm hoping someone has this.

I don't know why they couldn't put the thing online, or put it in the manual, the manual refers to the "fuse allocation chart" but there is not one in my trunk or under the passenger side footwell with that fuse box.

Hey Realien,

This is going to be REALLY clutsy, but I have jpegs of the front and rear and pics of the list descriptors. Because I couldn't get anything readable in one pic, the desctiptors are just overlapping pics. Hope this gets it for you:

Finally got the camera wires, and the relay energized by a switched source (add a fuse to the cigar lighter).

Pics below incase anyone needs to run wires from under the hood to the cabin and over to the passenger side. I ran two wires, one isn't used, its a "spare" for if I ever need a 2nd switched source for something like a radar detector or laser jammer.


sophisticated fishing tool, a coat-hanger with one end sharpened to piece rubber grommets.

drivers side under tray removed, pain in the *** as you have to remove the hood release and ODBii connector, under dash light and speaker, but it will eventually come out if you swear enough.

ran the coat-hanger through the hood release grommet,

the coat-hanger comes out toward the top of the firewall.

you can see it closer here

taped two wires to it to bring them into the cabin, one wire is a "spare" so I don't have to do this again if I have to wire something else.

wires pulled into the cabin by pulling the coat-hanger back through the hole

closer shot of the wires coming into the gormet

routing the wires under the access panels so its tidy

routing and zip tying

routing and zip tying

more zip ties

moving from the front cover to the passenger side cover

routing the wires under the access panel to the battery (where my relay is)

putting some heatshrink on to protect the wires where they'll rub against plastic.

shrinking the heat shrink

just tidying up

cover back on

no idea on this darn weather stripping pieces attach to these clips in the fender

routing the wires from the drivers side to the passenger side

this is where the coat hanger will come out on the passenger side

wires came through on the coat hanger

removed the passenger side undertray inside the cabin to make it easier to tidy the wires away

labelling the wires, camera and "spare" so I remember next time I have to do something.

ready to wire into the fuse box

(thanks @Acta_Non_Verba for the fuse diagram pics, life saver!

15 amp fuse was used with "add a fuse" to run the line for the camera relay

I would like to find the Mercedes engineer who designed the passenger side footwell fuse cover and punch him in the face. three 10mm bolts and all designed so that if the nut falls off when putting it on it runs under the cover so you have to take it back out again, and it only seats properly if you get wiggle it for 7 hours untill all 3 threaded bolts seat..

I'll post a pic of the cameras image once I get it seated right today, I don't love the camera, it has little lights on it, but I'm making a small wedge to angle it right so when its inside the front logo it will angle down for parking. The actual image on the phone is really good.
