I have answered this one a lot. it isn't terribly difficult to solve. There are 2 ways to go about this.

1. It is most often found in the original owner's manual where there will be a 4-5 digit code.
2. you can call the dealership and ask them they will want your VIN# and may even want you to verify that you are the owner of the vehicle.

Calling the dealership is your best bet, while your owners manual should have the procedure for resetting the radio the dealership can give you the procedure.

You could have a leak in the AC system ... if you just bought the car, the previous owner might have filled the Fre-on just before selling it to you, which would have hidden the problem. If this is the case, take it to a mechanic and they can probably find the problem.
Your compressor might not be compressing properly -- when you put the air on full-cold do you hear the compressor kick on? If not, it might be a bad compressor, or no coolant. Once again, this would require a mechanic to give you all the details
Your AC system might be in perfect shape, but out of coolant anyways. A mechanic should be able to fill it up for you in short order.
Unfortunately, if you are not experienced with working on cars, the AC system is not the safest to be working on on your own. It is highly pressurized when filled with coolant (which is a toxic substance) and without the right tools and experience, you could get severely hurt by loosening the wrong bolt at the wrong time. I highly recommend taking the car to a professional to reduce the risk to yourself.

Hi, you question is not clear enough to get an answer. You said you bought a 2001 what? What is the soft top you are also talking about? Please rephrase your question again.

If you're after radio code, you need to contact a Benz dealer and provide your VIN#. Dealer is only source for anti theft radio codes.

If you can open the hood, the battery can be charged from the hot terminal on the alternator or starter. The negative charger cable can just be attached to any bolt on the engine or any ground wire.

Turn the socket counter clockwise to remove it. Then the bulbs just pull out. You can get access to the bulb socket from the rear side.
Other types have two screws on the lens that you remove and then pull the bulbs out.

Changing the oil on your Mercedes is not that hard and will save you big money at the shop. You will need a special Mercedes oil filter wrench, as the filter is guarded by a housing that needs to be removed to get at the filter. The filter is located on the drivers side of the engine in the front. And no you dont need a topsider. Oil can be drained through a drain plug, but since the filter is located on the top of the motor a topsider is the easy way, since you wouldnt have to crawl under the car to get to the oil drain plug. The oil drain plug is located under the car at the bottom of oil pan. The filter can be purchased at any parts store and i would recommend a MANN filter. The filter is a cartridge that will come with O-rings that must be installed correctly and dont let the dealerships fool you, any good quality oil will be fine in your vehicle. But remember, if you ever go to a synthetic oil, you can not go back to a standard.

soft top roof modual under the near side seat needs a new one also there are 15 sensors you need to put it on a diognostics

unfortunately, this is a security measure added to most manufacture radios today

if you are lucky and the original paper work is in the glove box you should find the radio code there

otherwise, if you talk nicely to your local dealer and tell them how much you love your car and the factory radio, they may unlock it for you....Make sure you tell them you would HATE to replace it with an aftermarket radio, but if you have to pay $100 for the code that is what you are going to do.


Keep us posted and let us know if you have any luck at the dealer

You must be having a check engine light or maintenance coming up on the dashboard, if yes the best way to start troubleshooting this problem is to run a diagnostic test on the vehicle.Also after changing the mass air flow meter did you reset the ECM ?If not then this is required after any repair you do.Hope this helps.

Alarm system is detecting a fault. It could be a door latch sensor gone wrong, and it should show a door ajar light while driving, or the hood or trunk sensor disconnected. Most alarms are designed to "arm", even if it detects an open door.

The electric switch could be bad. Or there should be a relay somewhere in the back that is in between the switch and the latch that could be bad. You can test relays with an ohmmeter. The same with fuses. Have you tried to manually open the latch with a key? Can you hear the latch click when you push the button to release.
