I have just taken delivery of my 2000 X CLK320 convertible (Pictures to follow).
All in all it is a great car in fantastic condition.
The only thing that seems to have stopped working are the Passenger seat, passenger electric window and the wing mirror.
I did some digging and replaced the fuse which seems to be the same one for all three problems(Fuse 8 in the front) which didnt help.
I'm assuming that these are all connected, but can anyone guide me as to what may be wrong?:confused:
Thanks
Max

Welcome obaid,

Would agree there, you really need a star test done but as obaid said, its normally the door control module gone down!!!

Would anyone have the part number for the control module?
Is the door panel easy to remove.
Thanks for the info

Just came back to say that as this is all basically 202 stuff, I think it was Andy who put up a mod where the memory wires were disconnected and joined to the 12v rail and it solved the problem, I think that it was for the same fault and quite recent, I will see if I can find it

Thanks Malcolm You are a Star!
So it may just be the wiring is loose rather than the unit?
Will give it a go this afternoon.

Not really a wire loose, it could have water / moisture in it, often just disconnecting it for 5 mins can restore normal functions.

The post above was where someone did a mod on the wiring to solve the fault that was similar to yours

Ok have removed the door panel, it would seem there is some corrosion on one of the connectors on the Module, so I assume it's goosed!
Will try and find another one now.
Thanks again

Not necessarily the corrosion could be killing it or some functions, a tooth brush ( the wife's) and some lighter fuel can be used to wash it all out. remove what you can and dry it off and see

I have found a module that is similar, but I am not sure whether the parts will interchange
The Number on mine is 208 820 21 26 and the one I have found is 208 820 13 26 is this suitable?

Thanks Malcolm for the How to's this may be the start of my DIY fixing!
