Weird COMAND problem
My 2001 S430 developed a strange COMAND problem. Everytime I start the car, or turn on/off the COMAND the tape deck cover beeps, closes, beeps again, then opens. The tape deck cover stays open all of the time now and it will not keep a cassette tape inserted. It plays for a couple of seconds and then ejects. Any suggestions? Everything else works correctly.

This can happen when the Lid detect switch is faulty or tape deck malfunction.
unfortunately there are no simple fix to it. One thing I have come across is using the MP3 tape adapter that cusses this problem!
