A mixture of electrical problems...

[CodeMonkey]

Hello - my E300 (WDB 210) has a nice variety of electrical problems and I wonder whether one fault might be causing several of them... here's the list in full.

The "EC Traction" warning message comes up occasionally, generally after I have pressed the brake. After this the cruise control does not work.

The radio only works intermittently.

It eats sidelights. They only last a few days.

And now the full beam sometimes doesnt come on. If you pull the stick back it works, but you cant have full beam all the time.

Any thoughts or ideas very gratefully received.

There is a mod for eating rear lights
The headlamps will cure with luck by squirting switch cleaner down the stalk.

Brake light switch possibly for the tracton and CC

Thanks for that - I'll try changing the brake light switch etc.

This switch is an iffy one,as the BAS lights do come on sometimes, but at £10 and easy to fit its worth a try I think
