Hello all. I have a fairly new W164 ML 350 CDi. It has auto lights and auto wipers.
Lights: Come on regardless of the switch position (i.e. OFF and AUTO seem to be the same thing). Also too sensitive in my opinion.
Wipers: Far too sensitive. If on slow intermittent, even the tiniest amount of rain prompts them to go to continuous high speed - to paraphrase Michael Winner's slogan "Calm down - it's only a shower". You have to rturn them off and back on again to get intermittent function back.
Is there any way of disabling these features so that I can, as driver, control the lighting and windscreen wiper functions ?
Note: I have the daytime running lights turned on (if that has any bearing on the matter).
Any advice welcome. Thank you in advance.
