W166 COMAND ONLINE Engineering Mode Description
7.7 HU Parameters - AUX - Not Installed
then go to:
7.5 TGW Parameter
Most - ON
Audio Source - External Amp
DAB - not installed
SDARS - installed (this is satellite radio)
UCI - installed (this is Media Interface)
TV Tuner - not installed
then perform a 9.1 System Reset
In my menu NTG Menu then I had both Media Interface and AUX after this, my MI cable connector has both a 3.5mm input cable and Ipod cable, if connect to the 3.5mm I select AUX in my menu, if I want to use my IPOD I select Media Interface.
Hope this helps, save time for some.




take the advice given to you in the fb group. You messed up your COMAND unit. Gotta deal with the consequences. Next time, just use f’ing Waze like the rest of the world. 😁
I am trying to enable Audio AUX input. From what I understood, the only thing I have change is change Audio Source - External Amp. and restart?
Currently my 7.7 HU Parameters - AUX - Not Installed and grey out. Will this fix the aux input?
I have attached the current setting here.
Hope you can help.

The TV fades as it should in motion but when I switch to split screen for the passenger that side defaults to "Mercedes APPS" whilst the driver sees the warning display.
Thanks
I am one of the lucky ones by owning a brand new MY13 ML350 4Matic (W166). After reading some comments about COMAND ONLINE, I've decided to discover it myself. I was able to get into the engineering mode by "end call + 1 + #" key combination pressed for about 10 sec. There is also another secret menu after entering the engineering mode as mentioned in some threads in this forum. I managed to enter the second menu with the key combination "end call + 4 + #" after entering the engineering menu. I prepared an instruction with screens from COMAND ONLINE in the attachment for those who wants to bring some cool features on to their COMAND system. I must warn though, you can mess up with your settings. So, don't change anything if you are not sure what you are doing.
Good Luck

I have x166 and missed up the settings.. Unfortunately the sound had gone completely when I select Aux Audio or Aux video, although my amplifier settings is set to External and Aux enabled and Most is ON.
Any clue how to reset entire menu to default or solve this problem

You need to explain exactly which options you futz'ed with in engineering mode.
Rule # 1 -- don't futz with engineering mode
Rule # 2 -- if you futz with engineering mode by not listening to rule #1, document EVERYTHING you futz with.
I had mainly toggle between Internal and External Amplifier, Switch MOST ON/OFF enable and Disable Audio AUX.
Reason behind that, Tried to figure out how to connect new Mercedes MI cable with Type C and play Audio directly.
Endup screws the entire working system, last time the dealer charged me for 200 $ for reset
I hope such information is enough to assist incase anyone can assist.

Helped a lot, lost almost 200 $ checking several fuses and removed entire passanger seat to check batteries compartment fuses.
I were always concerned with Aux On thoughts it should brought the Aux sound, turned out when UCI enabled, Aux enabled Automatically.
