what year is your ML, bur Yeah the headlight should be on before you can used your dash switch, by MB default. Unless you don't want to use you OEM dash switch.

i have an 00, and 01, 04. i know you have to turn the headlights on first, but i am talking about the MB dash switch...when the fogs are on should the dash switch light up? (when you turn on the rear fog, a light turns on...same idea).

'03 C32 LET Stage I
Fog light Dash warning

I have '00 ML 320 with fog lights activated via the button. There is a green warning light on the instrument cluster that is suppose to turn on when fog lights are active, but they do not for me. I was told by the SA that this feature is only support for Factory Installed fog lights like in ML55. I have heard from some other sources that there is a way to enable this feature but may be my SA did not know about it.

yes that suppose to lit up when your fog lifhts are on, rear and front use the same dash switch the color for the front is a green dot light and amber on the rear.

amurtazza, your SA must be new or lack of knowledge about his job The should activate it thru laptap. MIne, I have to cover it with black tape because it is way too bright for me. I can still see the green halo though.
