SL500 radio doesn’t turn on after battery replacement
I have a 2005 SL500. I just replaced the battery and now the radio does not turn on at all. Any ideas on how to correct the problem?

There is no radio code. You may have blown a fuse. There is one on the back of the COMAND unit itself. Check here for others:
