I tried to do this without watching the video. Please do not do that! This video made it so easy, and you will not break pins or damage other parts of the door.
How come we can't post new comments??
Nonetheless, thanks brother. My switch just died on me and I'm gonna try you technic.
Thank you so much for this video. My 2009 ML350 door switch was broken for over a year (who needs to lower back windows, anyway? ;) ), as I didn't want to pay Beverly Hills MBZ $750 for the repair. I bought the replacement switch for $40, and following your great instructions (only thing different on my car was that the 2 bolts holding the switch in place, inside the door panel, were a smaller size than the T30, but I actually had the right size tool, so I was able to remove them), I did the repair/switch myself! Works perfectly now, and again, thank you! :)
My wife’s 2013 C300 drivers widow just broke well 2 weeks ago! Watching your video, you are the man! Wow brother, you operate like a surgeon Nice work Thank you!
Normally dont comment but this really saved me this morning,thank you
Glad it helped!
My dude, you are a lifesaver, I fat-fingered my wife's ML 350 window switched and it's been a month and she was on my case to get it fixed. You helped a brother out.
Just a few guys here in the shop wondering how to get this panel off. We're all impressed with your finesse! Thanks
Glad you found it helpful
Thank you so much for this video. I bought my daughter a 2006 Mercedes ML350 and your videos are a God send!!! Thank you so much!!!!
I will share this with my car technician so he could know why I’m not taking my car to him... Dude it’s awesome and so clean...
Thanks so much for recording this! It worked for my 2007 ML350. Saved me a lot of guesswork 1736! I would have missed a few things for sure doing this without the video!
I followed the video to replace the liftgate release switch (tailgate open/close switch) A 251 870 63 10 9051 in my 2008 ML320 driver side door. At the point in the video where the link to the door handle is about to be disconnected it is possible to easily access this switch. The cable connector needs to be disconnected and a single torx screw removed to swap out the switch. Excellent well explained video!
This is one of the BEST how-to videos I’ve watched in a long time, if not the best. Great job with the emphasis on PRECISION. THANK YOU 🙏 for sharing.
Glad you found the video useful.
This how to video was the best I’ve seen! Followed it step by step and everything went perfectly. Thanks for your time and for sharing your expertise!
Excellent video. Obviously an individual who takes great care and pride in the job at hand. Congratulations and thank you.
I'm having this issue now and just ordered the part which is was only around $45. Just out of curiosity I was looking for a video here on how to do it and your video was the first one to come up. Honestly you are great at explaining how to do the replacement without any confusion and long talks. Very impressive it. Thank you for doing this!!
Thank you, the same button broke off of mine! I suspect this is Mercedes design defect. Thank you for clear concise how-to instructions
I was all for your 100% precision until I saw the torx 20 dancin' around on top of that flathead screwdriver.. LMAO. I'm just hisidin', great video bro..
Thank you so much, I only wabted to replace the driver aide lock unlock switch and the dealer was telling me that the whole door panel must be removed to get access to the switch. Now, I feel like forwarding him your video as education material for the mercedes people.
Your video is superb. My switch replacement became a simple 20 minute job after viewing this. I watched another video from somebody else and he had the lock switch removal technique wrong- with his instructions it felt like I was about to break the switch, so I found your video and got it right. You're the best! Thank You.
Glad the video helped. Thanks for the positive feedback. It helps to balance out the pundits who come on here from time to time. 😎
Excellent video. Also found these control units, brand new on EBay for AUD$46 delivered! Not the $600+ OEM WOW!
Fantastic how-to video! You probably saved me $400. GREAT job! (btw...who are these 14 thumbs down people??)...
Thanks my friend. Buy me a beer if we ever meet.
Just changed mine today your the man very easy to follow video 👊🏾
It’s a good thing that I watched this video because I was about to take the door panel off I guarantee I would’ve broken some clips or took the wrong piece off this video made it simple for me and I didn’t break a sweat.
Thanks man! I just replaced mine and the hardest parts were finding the clips on the bottom and unscrewing the damn 3rd screw hole inside the panel, I super glued the screw with the T20 socket to keep it in place it makes it easier putting it back in without dropping the damn thing. One more thing, I forgot to put down the window when I started no wonder I can't put the panel back on top..lol
This is best Video I have ever seen in my life, GREAT JOB iRepair Autos, and thank you for those Videos
I broke the shit out of my old unit without any other interior damage....why? Because I wasted too much time trying to find a video without some tweaker trying to show me how to do this correctly!! Thank you kindly for your thorough step by step video. My ML500 and I greatly appreciate you!!
Ordered the part, they didn't have a beige one. Will replace the beige covering of the old one on the new one and replace. Thanks for the excellent video, I feel empowered to begin the process and save $$$.
Very cool, straightforward, concise and accurate! Well done video...many thanks! Much appreciated....
Thanks my friend
I totally agree. this video as well as your others are some of the best out. Please keep on creating . we need quality tutorials. Can you do some on the Rclass?
thanks
736 you are a surgeon my man
17:36, phenomenal job buddy!
Your camera work is awesome.
Thank u helped alot didnt watch all of it jus the beginning but was stil a lot of help n i liked how u didnt talk abt unnecessary things n jus got to workn
Hey, I just want to say thank you for this helpful video. With the useful tools and this tutorial I did the work in under one hour. Very useful!
Im glad you were able to do this job yourself. Thanks for letting me know that you were successful.
I am grateful for this video
Excellent video! Still it seems, to me, to be delicate. A little too much force and broken pins and covers everywhere! Experience is key.💯
Excellent ! Saved me a lot of time.
Superb video! Clear concise and executed with precision! Thank you.🙏
Excellent presentation my brother.
wow this is great! thanks.. is the rear panel removal process the same? I also have to fix the door locks its jumping up and down, I tried tape method and it does not work.
Excellent video, thank you very much for taking the time to put it together. You literally saved me tonnes of time to change out the switch. Keep up the great videos!!
You always put out some great video, for so long I hated German products I'm starting liking them, thanks.
Very helpful thank you. Your video saved us hundreds of dollars.
Excellent video, u saved me. Thanks.
I keep resetting the drive window switch over and over again because it doesn’t do the auto-up thing every single time. I would reset the switch and it works fine until I shut the car off and leave. When I come back it works for a few days and stops going up again… Do you think it’s most likely the master window switch or another little square module that sits under the door panel? I have a 2014 GLK 250. I don’t get any codes when I do diagnostics with my Mercedes-specific scanner. Thanks!
Thank you for all information shared with us.
17:36 great video !! Directions were great very easy to follow
Do you have a video on how to remove the entire door not just the door panel?
1736 Thank for the very informative video. Very well explained . One of the better videos to watch on how to do things. Thanks again.
I was contemplating doing this on my w164 as my drivers door wing mirror doesn’t work properly, i tried to correct it with the launch diag but accidentally changed window settings so my windows dont work anymore🤷♂️so maybe i wont bother with taking the door panel off, as it looks like its all electrically😢 operated, a job for the garage i guess as i dont really know how to work my diag program, next option sell the car
That is an excellent video with clear and relevant explanations. From your newest Aussie mate.
Thank you for this video. I am a “real “woman and I just changed this part out myself. My window is working again! Thank you thank you thank you kind Sir!
Awesome! Im glad that you were successful. Saved money, and did it yourself.
Bro, how about remote to roll up or down window IR sensor fix. Couldn’t separate the sensor out from the lock cylinder. Please help
That's a tricky one. you might have to change the handle. That's where the senor lives.
Hello I replaced the door control of a W164 it didn't works, not only don't open the own window and the others but any window was possible to open with their own control..then weeks after I had to disconnect the main battery and when I reconnect it all windows were working....I wonder if it is neccesary to do something with program in computer.. do you please advice?
Hi am having w221 the rear door ajar sensor shows the door open.... When it's rely closed... Any idea where it's located
Outstanding video, great camera angles, and very detailed!
Such a good tutorial! You saved me a lot of money!! Keep it up
You made it super easy. Thanks
Needed this. Now if I can just figure out why my car loses HP. The Exclamation signal warning just flashes when this occurs. Anyone have any insight on this!? PLEASE HELP. Thanks!
Dear Keith
I have been following your Chanel for a while and I enjoy how easy you make it all look .
I took your advice on this replacement of this part took the door apart and changed the old broken controller for a new one that costed $25.00 and 1 hour of my time .
The explanation it’s perfect and I manage to take everything out and put it all back .
Precision as you said yes it’s important if you wanna fix your old Mercedes .
Currently I have loss of oil every few weeks I loose around 2 litres of oil .
Also loss of power the engine run in some sort of low mode change the gears at 2000rpm only and occasionally the power comes back but I can see white smoke when I press the throttle down.
Any advice with this .
Thank you
Sasha
Thank you so much; very clear instructions
Superb and detailed work explanation. Thank you dear...
Thanks for this video i mean very informative and helpful
Masterfully Done, Thank you
great video presentation. Any advice for how to power the passenger seat forward when battery dies and possibly seat control module faulty. Which wire to power to get the motor to actuate forward on 2009 ML320
Connect a battery pack to the jump points under the hood. I'll get those wires for you. What's your vin?
@@iRepairAutos 4JGBB25E99A498043 is the VIN. And yes I jumped it at the under hood points with no luck. Battery has less than 1v. I did a naked jump to cables to get the car into neutral so I could get it off the trailer. But, I need to actuate the seat forward to replace the battery so I can search for the parasitic drain and crank the car. I don't want to cut away any wires or cut the seat out. I would prefer a connector to the seat motor to make a jumper direct to the motor and then use a battery or something direct to motor unless it is faulty.
I always love your videos. Very well explained. I’m out are the best. Thanks
Went through all the steps and now have no power to the master switch at all. any idea what I could have done wrong?
Awesome job, very detailed. 👍👌🙌👏👏. Thank you for sharing this video.
exactly what i was looking for! thank you!
Proud x from the United Kingdom
Thanks for your videos. Where can I get the fan enblem button caps for my 2010 C300 Benz?
I replaced the control switch exactly how you explained it, but it's still not working. Tried disconnecting and reconnecting battery and nothing. Checked all Fuses. Any suggestions?
Great video
Is necessary to reprogram it before it can work? If yes can you try to explain the procedure? Thanks
Left rear door won't unlock. I have to open it from inside. Any clue?
Great video! Do you think the inner driver door panel is similar on a 2015 GLK-350? That's what I have, and window controls need replacing. Thanks!
Nicley explained mate.
Nice video, made it easy, thanks
I have to do the exact same procedure.
my front window left button just now broke today.. just now...
dealer wants .. $$WHAT? for it

Great video. Helped a ton!!!
Will the power mirrors also work, or is there another step?
They will work
Where to by the window buttons switch ?
Super helpful!! Thank you!
Can you please tell me what is the serial number for the wire on 4.47 min that has the blue clip ? Thank you
Thanks man!!! Took me 10 mins!
Sweet!!!!
Great video but for those who just need to replace a single button, this is not the way to go.
I also have a video for that
Thanks mate 👍🏽
The bests. Thanks
Great video, nice camerawork!
I first look at the door panel and decided no way until I watched this Video!
Very helpful! Thanks.
Thank you,bro..
That was fantastic
The door panel fell off my hand and snapped the plug connector, any one knows the part number?
Well put together video dude thank you 😊
I'm glad it helps
He made this wonderful video after breaking 30 clips and recording 7 times. HA. Sure is a GREAT video, a 12 year old could follow your instructions. Keep up the good work.
Handy Man I go through the pain so you don't have to. Hopefully the videos make it so easy that even a 4 year old can do them successfully.
If you broke the connecting ribbon is it fixable?
Yes. You can rewire them all
Thanks, teşekkür,Shükran,Merci, Danke
How about the passenger window switch, does anyone know how to replace it? Cant find any video on how to replace the passenger window switch
Removal of the door panel is the same. Then the switch is easy to remove.
you da real mvp
1736 thanks job completed!
