Are you sure it's the switch and not the wires under the console ?

Dublinoh

What he said, pretty common problem like the trunk thing, wear and then breakage.

Toadster

Yeah - dealer diagnosed it a while back just didn't want to spend $400+ on a button with leather 😂

Toadster

anyone know the difference in these parts?

actual pic of my shifter...

I have one I'd be willing to part with. Pm me your phone number and I'll send you some pics.

Those last 4 digits before mbz are the color codes. You can also use a face-lift w211 shift knob with the round button.

Ls1toAMG

I would do the round button and top it off with the AMG logo. It looks nice

FWIW...

I diagnosed mine by pulling the shift knob/switch off (boot too) and "shorting" the 2 connectors at the top of the shift shaft. If it attempts to start, it is the knob button. If not it is the wiring underneath.

I'm no MB mechanic - but that is how I dropped the cash for the new $$$$ start/stop boot/button.

MB techs please confirm......

Toadster

So - color code for the shifter? How do I know which one matches?

Also what's the part # for the round updated one?

Rocman8

VIN number and EPC will narrow down the leather color and wood trim on shifter.

Toadster

yeah, but I don't need the whole shifter - just the boot with button - right?

VIN#WDBUF76J15A638184

Toadster

ugh, so I tried shorting the pins - maybe my wire wasn't small enough to fit the holes, would a paperclip work?

no start jumpering with 16GA speaker wire...

plus I accidentally twisted the shift boot when pulling off - i think I tweaked the pins inside the button

Rocman8

Ok your shifter knob and leather is all leather no wood. Per EPC you need the 9C05 version

Just buy this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-Ben...NXgt8p&vxp=mtr

Looks pretty good

Part number based on your VIN is 2112677310 9C09 or 2112677410 9C05 (new part number)
Cost is ~$211
You only need the shifter part.

Personally, I would go with newer E63 one.

Toadster

is there a matching #2112677410 9C05 for the E63 one? or are all E63 ones the same?

Rocman8

No. Both of those part numbers you provided are for a manual transmission and no keyless go.

t-bone

Yes, it will work and the price is good.
