Pre-Facelift W204 Overview
Here you can see a look at my view of the Preface lift W204 Chassis. In my experience they have been fairly reliable vehicles with minor issues and very average repair needs. This is a car I usually recommend as a solid car to buy.

      You should be able to use the old one, especially if it’s still on the line. There’s a small risk of it leaking but I’ve never seen it personally. You don’t really want to spread it apart as they do crack in half very easily. Otherwise you may be able to get a replacement at the dealer separately or online

    If you have the setting turned on that uses a fog light as you steer at low speeds that usually fades or dims in and out when using halogen bulbs. What happens when you try with LED in? Does it fade in and out or just sharp on and off each side as turn or does it flicker as the LEDs don't like being dimmed ?

    BTW, you can join the wiring by simply twisting the two halves of the bared wire together & insulate with heat shrink, NOT electrical tape, as tape can start falling off with age! Simple fact!

  • @myredute
    @myredute Місяць тому

    Your problem was the zip tie which actually tightens the sharp angle for the wiring to drop into the area intended by Mercedes, who never put a zip tie on the trunk bracket. I've got a 2003 W211 E320 which is 20 years old. It has no zip tie & the brown wire never looks like breaking. The zip tie can actually cut the wire over a number of years & this, my friend, is your problem. Mercedes actually have the wiring routed down the underside of the trunk bracket, held in place by clips pushed into holes in the bracket. This is NOT a common problem on the W211 if you don't interfere with the wiring. Take the zip tie off & leave the wiring alone, as Mercedes intended!!!!!
