2013 GLK 350 with 46,000 miles says A7 service required
What is the A7 service? I've read that the A designates how long the service takes (30 minutes, I think), and I don't know what the 7 means.
Is this something that needs to be done at the dealership, or can an independent shop do it?

2013 Mercedes Benz GLK350
Lost all electrical on dash while driving, but driving wasn't interrupted
On my 2013 GLK 350 with about 46,000 miles, last week, 2 miles into my normal 35-mile afternoon commute, I lost all electrical power on the dashboard. It had been raining most of the day and was raining hard at the time. All analog gauges went to zero and all dash lights and functions powered off just like it would if the car was turned off. Oddly, the vehicle continued to drive as if nothing happened. The dash lights flickered a few times, gauges resumed to normal then back to zero over the next minute or so. I did nothing and kept driving. After about 1-2 minutes, power finally restored and an error message appeared that said "Adaptive High Beam Assist Inoperative". I haven't tested Adaptive High Beam Assist, but everything seems fine. Since then, I've taken about 3 more trips and driven another 75 miles and everything seems normal. Any ideas what's going on?
