2012 E220 Airscarf

Hello,

Bit of an odd one here. I've got a 2012 E220 and I seem to have Airscarf (datasheet and icar reader says so) but I don't have the buttons to activate it on the dash.

Is there another way to activate or am I missing something?

Thanks!

Vent is just for adjustment. Wonder if someone swapped out switch block, need your VIN again.

Here's the switch block for your vehicle, part # 2079050351.

Thanks so much! Do you think that's all I need to get it back up and running?

Finding it very odd that someone has switched it out and for what purpose!

Only way to know if there are additional problems is to have someone pull codes using Xentry (MB diagnostics). Replacing switch block is plug & play see attachments.

Thanks again!

I have an iCarsoft v3.0 if that's any good? I do have one active fault showing on that. I've attached it as an image.

Thank you yet again, I don't have any issues with the roof, seems to go up and down as it should. Windows etc retract as they should. Hopefully it's not something that's going to become an issue later!

Just want to say I ordered a new control panel, installed it and it's working perfectly.

I'm going to assume the previous owner had an aftermarket radio or something and removed and replaced the old panel. Who knows! All that matters is it's working now.

Thanks again for your help!
