Love your channel man. I just bought a 2004 SL 600 and I’m loving it, but it needs a lot of love. I’m putting your vids in my research notes of what I need to be aware of.
Mercedes saved us a lot of trouble by separating the system control modules/ Signal Acquisition Modules from the communications system. You have got to sponsor a car show this Summer. That would be super cool. You ever start up an m113 that sat for 3 years or more?
What's up brother Ralph in Philadelphia just wanted to let you know I finally got my Cl back running I put another motor back in it it was the start of wires and a problem with my neutral safety switch
Funny I have a S500 2000. I don't have the fuse box on the passenger side, I guess I got a car that's called a pre-facelift so they didn't install it there. My 7.5 number 78 is located in the rear passenger seat. Woke up to go to work today went to turn my key wouldn't turn. I hope this works because my car actually is a great running car I don't have any problems with it at all. When I got it the airmatic system was down. Got that fixed, a little electrical problem cost me about 300. Stop and the fuel pump. At 212,000 mi my transmission went. Replace it for 2100, cars been a joy ever since. I recently had a blowout back in February. That caused my aromatic system to just act up, I got rid of the horror magic system and just put a regular suspension with spring and coils. Trust me, if you guys are having problems with your air mattress system just replace the suspension and you're good to go. I'm heading up to the auto parts store to grab these fuses I'll let you know if it works 🤞🤞🤞
This has been helpful i found the fuze blown on 78. I still need to diagnose further because i got it to run again it sounded good for a few seconds then the fan went into hyper speed mode and the car cut off again fuze blown again… my next step is to check this battery you just showed us in the wheel well. I’m hoping that’s it because it doesn’t look like this water in my Sam unit and even as an electrician I’m a little intimidated of replacing that
@@paulyp9561 Usually when the fan comes on full blast, there’s a short somewhere. The ECU turns on the fan to prevent engine damage. Something is fooling the ECU. Look for a short. Start with the alarm horn. Do you have a scanner?
@ I do but because I can not turn the ignition switch due to the fuze immediately blowing. Tomorrow when there’s daylight I intend to remove the drivers side wheel well and get at that alarm horn/battery!
Scratch that I got to the alarm battery this morning you solved my issue! Who ever your woman is you let her know you deserve brain every morning because you are the man! Lol but in all seriousness much appreciated I will be subscribing and following you! Love the benz community, and I am working on a benz collection similar to yours. God speed brother!
I’m experiencing the same issue, even after replacing fp, relays, crank and cam sensors. Choked the maf and it’ll actually start and stay idled. Next attempt is getting the evap situated, will start with purge valve i believe is what it’s called behind driver side headlight
Regarding the alarm unit. Does removing it entirely cause the blinking issue? Basically for me (sometimes) when I lock the doors the car lights will blink. Hoping if I just remove it entirely that problem will be gone
I sold my 2002 cl600 to a friend about 4years ago,he did a complete straight pipe,the starts and runs for a while and then stalls,then you turn the key and you get nothing,then you have to wait a few minutes and then it starts and stalls agin.any ideas?
I go out in the morning to start and it wont start. I have to unhook the batteries a lot to get it to start. As soon as i insert the key the alarm goes off.
I was attempting to start changing my coil overs on my cl500 and since it was low I had a block tapered to where I can drive it on to get clearance to jack the front end up, as I was driving it on the car cut off within a few seconds I seen smoke on the passenger side fender area, it wouldn’t turn the key and I replaced the eis fuse 3 times it turns the key but the fuse over and over pops so obviously I have a short, and it still produces smoke so I have a bad short has never done this before, do you know where I should start looking for the short it’s not coming from the fuse box area in the passenger side, it seems like i may have to remove the front left fender to gain access or move the wheel well cover but I can’t even jack it up since I can’t drive it on the block, do you know what maybe causing this any feedback would be a blessing 🙏
@@kashiomodashio6455 Do you have the factory jack? If so….use it to raise the car by the factory side jack points covered by the square covers. Then go from there. Get access to the alarm horn and unplug it.
@@goldelementautoworks I actually used the the factory jack out of my w140 and it worked lol, and as far as the the factory horn do you think that could be why my eis fuse keeps blowing?
@@goldelementautoworks thanks it got late I did disconnect the alarm horn siren, I need to buy some fuses tommorow and give it a try so fingers crossed 🤞 thanks for the intel I’ll let you know if it works thanks so much thanks 🙏
Thanks so much 🙏 that alarm siren was shorted out causing it to smoke by the passenger front fender, I thought I was screwed lol! I removed it and the wire to the alarm siren was completely shorted it was fried, so I taped it up and put a bud connector and threw a fuse and vola! She stated right up, I replaced the front coil overs so far, I’m going to tackle the rear here soon, it’s weird tho my power steering feels normal, I haven’t converted it over to the normal power steering pump as I still have the tandem pump on, is that normal?
My key woyldnt turn this morning. My fuse 7.5 is in the rear. I checked it and it was busted. Got a new one. When I plugged it in I heard an air noise going for a little bit and then it stopped but my car still won't turn over 😭😭

You're the man!!!! My key would not turn in the switch... Found the fuse blown, replaced it, key turned and car started!!
What fuse number and where
Love your channel man. I just bought a 2004 SL 600 and I’m loving it, but it needs a lot of love. I’m putting your vids in my research notes of what I need to be aware of.
Beautiful car collection 😍 got the same issue with my S500 but no fuse box in that location
@@sinornothing Thank you! Look for the corresponding fuse that protects the same circuit. Look on your car’s fuse diagram.
I have a S 500 that not starting up now so I’m gonna go check that Fuse 7.5 one one the side

Good idea. I may consider it one day. Do you recently buy one that sat that long?
Thank you very much
Just saved me from being stranded. My cigg fuse was out so I replaced it but it blew my ignition fuse when I did not sure why.
What's up brother Ralph in Philadelphia just wanted to let you know I finally got my Cl back running I put another motor back in it it was the start of wires and a problem with my neutral safety switch
Excellent job! Now enjoy that beautiful car. Take a cruise and appreciate what you have. You have a gem. Well done sir!!
That 7.5 fuse. What was the description in the fuse box map? Alarm system?
I believe it said alarm. I’ll double check…..

Check the rear sam under the back seat

Ps: i did check for any shorting in the wire harness that i’ve unplugged for the fan.. does not have short in that power supply up to the connector

@ I figured if can’t get the ignition to the battery on position i wouldn’t be able to run a scanner.

I’m still trying to figure that one out. It still sometimes blinks after I lock with remote. It did that before I removed it and afterwards.

@@respectingthewordpodcast It sounds like when you unhook the battery, it’s resetting the alarm. Allowing it to start. Is that correct?
@goldelementautoworks I do that but I have to do it many times before it finally starts
@@goldelementautoworks i think it is the Sam fuse.

@@atpjoker6492 Is it even trying to start? Does the key turn at all?
I put a new fuse in there and it popped again

Can I keep it removed?
@@xmoneyxchaserx6181 Yes.
Thank you, you really helped me out but now I needa fix my soft close and lock and my roof window,
If you can help me out with that, that will be really wonderful, and I have a 06 s430 and it’s my first car
