Hi i left my ml 430 on the drive for 4 weeks while i have been away on holiday. The battery went flat so i had to jump start it. Since then ive noticed a few things.

The cigarette lighter no longer works ( i always use it for my sat nav )
The fuel computer has gone off, there is no display
The radio doesnt turn on when the car starts you have to push the button and then when you turn the ignition off the radio stays on!

Thats all ive foud so far!

Any help would be much appreciated

thanks

Rich

unfortunately im not familiar with the ml range as we never had one in the family. however, given the symptoms you describe, id start by checking the fuses. one may have blown during the jump start. sounds suspiciously similar to a fault on an old vauxhall many years ago after jump starting it. a fuse had blown in that case too

Should just be a fuse as turbopete said,if you have problems and not a fuse I will see what I can finf in common with those things
