Trying to figure out whats wrong with my stereo which at the moment does not do anything. The nav works on the screen, and many other things, but not the stereo. I cannot even see any FM or AM stations. So when I do figure it out, who can repair these things that are trustworthy?

I just googled "Mercedes Amp Repair" and found a few places offering repair services on/through eBay.

Have a look, you may find one that shall suit your needs.

It's been almost a month since you sent your amp for the repair. I would like to know how the repair and reinstall turned out and are you satisfied with the service M&B Specialist gave you.

M & B Specialist I am afraid are not good at what they do. They gladly took my amp for repair, and same day they got it they said cannot be repaired and charged me $65 dollars.....

Sent it to Becker, it is now repaired and on its way back to me... Not an exchange.. Repaired.
My thinking is maybe M & B likes to make their "diagnostic fee". Who knows.

Dont use M & B
