just spent a couple of hours last weekend installing a dashcam into my wife's 2020 GLE350
it was a pain in the *** to tuck away all the wires in the headliner and pillar areas
and it was a MAJOR pain in the *** trying to find the fuse boxes and right fuses
ran the wire to the cargo area
tapped the green fuse on left for constant power and the 2nd yellow fuse for ACC

AND WHERE IS THE DAMN BATTERY in this car? is it in the engine bay under the panel where the jump starting clamp points are? or under a seat?

You can follow this thread, there are much more information related to dashcam there

For the headliner, if you have a trim removal tool, its easier to put that in and get a gap to push the wire in. As for the A Pillar, its very easy to remove. Only held by 1 clip and you can remove the entire thing.
As for the battery, its located under the driver seat.

Maybe I missed it but is there a diagram for the fuse box in the eng bay?

Interesting you say this. Perhaps the circuit mine is on is similar.

I have the new DR750X-2CH that has the built in equivalent to power magic pro in-camera.

I’ve had mine installed and it seems whatever circuit the installer used times out and turns off after 2 hours.

My daughters Kia with the same camera allows her camera to stay running all night without draining the car battery or turning off.

Could MB have a timed shutoff for power for some circuits? If so is there a constant power somewhere I can get my installer to change to?

Otherwise I may need them to run a new fuse direct from battery?

You could always find a blank slot in the fuse box and make your own fuse or use a preexisting always on fuse. There are a couple that are always on in there but I can’t recall which one it is off the top of my head.

Does anybody know how you take off the plastic caging on the front of the fuse box? I’m trying to access fuse F417, but it’s underneath that caging. My ambient lighting has stopped working, so I want to try and reset it by taking the fuse out and re-inserting it.

I'm having the same issue of removing the cage to access f417

On the top of the fuse box in the right rear, there is a paper booklet attached with the Schematic of the entire vehicle electrical layout.
