2011 E350 Cabriolet Mods & Issues

Hey all, here is my 2011 E350 Cabriolet with 54,000 km and mods (Brabus exhaust, AMG 2020 mags, 10.25" Android screen, Ambient Lighting, Chrome delete, Pedal Commander...)

Next mods - Clear front blinkers, Front Grill (Black with Chrome Logo, illuminated, ECU tune...) If any of you have ideas, please share.

I just started having a couple of issues though, which are upsetting me.

1- Aircap stopped working - Will not go up anymore. Switch does not light up. Wind screen works though

2- Airscarf - Passenger side lights turn on for 10 secs - then go off again. I switched the blower fans from one seat to the other to see if it was that, but it isn't.


So, let me know what you all think and if you have any solutions to the issues I am having.

CHEERS!!!!

Nice mods for sure... Would like to know more how or what package you bought for the ambient lighting...
As for the aircap.. Never happened to me but I do recall remembering that there is a fuse for that you may want to check. If light does not go on nor it does not move it may be a fuse. While it may not be the blower fan itself, it may be a relay. They at times have relays that control when to shut the blowers off such as over heating etc. If you can get a hold of a wiring diagram for the seats you may be able to find out or switch the relay out as well to test.

Cheers

Check if the blower and heater unit are connected and get power. If either system is not working the button will go off for safety. This ensures that the heater is not working without the fan running and getting to hot, or the fan just blowing cold air at you. Would advise to remove the whole system from the passenger side and wire it on the driver side. It's just four screws (2 back panel, 2 for unit), two connectors, and two clips (at top) on each side.

Hey thanks for your response.
Tried that and it works on the driver's side, not the passenger's.
I will check to find the relay as suggested by mikey08.

Any solutions for your Aircap issue? I'm facing similar problems. Have already checked the fuse and they're all fine.
