Fuses for Radio and Sound 2007 sl550


I’m having problems with no sound in my rental y acquired 2007 550sl. I attached a photo of the rear, right fuse box. I noticed some gaps and I don’t have a way to identify which fuses are which. Any help appreciated. Does the box look complete? Any help identifying the position of each fuse. I have a schema but my number of fuses don’t seem to add up properly.

That all looks normal to me, there is usually a gap next to the yellow 20Amp fuse, (that 20A fuse is for the pneumatic)
For the radio whats the issue is the screen on but no sound? is there an error message?
For the fuses check the last horizontal fuse on the right and also the orange fuse on the yellow box which I think is for the Comand unit from memory, but just check all orange fuses.
The fuse chart is probably in the engine fuse box, so check there.

I believe that my 2004 owner's manual says that the fuse chart is supposed to be inside of the tool kit in the trunk. I found the chart in mine loose and stuffed down next to the spare tire. I've made a scan of it and saved that and I put the folded up chart inside of a sealed zip lock bag to help protect it and it's now on top of the spare tire. I should tape it down with some painter's tape to make sure that it stays there.

Most people leave next to the fuses as in your photo or the front box in engine.
