Fuse Diagram?

Greetings all,

I recently purchased a 2012 S550, but it didn't come with any kind of diagram indicating what the various fuses are. I thought I'd come across some stuff online indicating that a map either came with the manual pack or was folded up within the toolkit, but the dealership told me that wasn't the case.

Can anyone enlighten me? The cigarette lighter blew and it took me far too long to find out which fuse to replace.


Thanks much,
MB

I'd suggest you to visit this dealer shop and pick up the fuse diagram from one of their demo cars. It should not bother the dealer who says there is none in the car.

The fuse diagram probably has been posted at the forum, if not, wait a while.

Unfortunately, I bought a used 2012, so that isn't really an option.

Perhaps I misunderstood. I thought the dealer claimed there is none in the car from the factory. I guess they admitted that the car should have one but the previous owner had removed the fuse chart from the car. I wonder why didn't they just order a new one or print charts from their workshop documents.

I'll attach a complete set here, but I'll remove it soon (not sure about copyright issues). This set covers all 221 models, some charts are redundant for an S550.

Yes, that's what I was led to believe. Perhaps, my salesman and service rep aren't very good at their respective jobs.

Thanks for the attachment. Someone else PM'd me a set as well.


Cheers!

Hi Wally, does the fuse chart have a part number located anywhere on it. My parts guy is trying to see if he can order them?

Nifty! Is that chart in English? Also, will it apply to a 2012 S550?


Thanks much,
