I have the same issue (battery is completely dead in my 1998 Mercedes C280 and I can't pop open the trunk). I looked under the hood and have no idea where the positive charging post would be - can anyone help me find it? Thanks

that is why your suspension went down. is that just a bracket or the arm off of the level sensor? it will need to be repaired for the car to maintain correct level.

your blower motor going bad or blower motor resistor

Open the hood locate the fuse box on the passengers side near fire wall back feed 12 volts into to large fuse that is loose all by its self conected by 2 wires .I think its a 40 amp . By back feeding 12 volts into the system you can pop the trunk lid with the door switch.

on my 2003 they are in three separate places....two are in engine compartment area...the third is behind a panel or passenger side...next to the glove compartment where the air vent is located (air vent to the door) i suspect the instrument panel fuses are in the engine compartment area....hope that helps

it is best to take your car to a mechanic The power steering system consist of a high pressure hose a low pressure hose a power sterring pump and a rackinpinion Unless you know the location of each 1 of these items it is hard to determined

your AC has a pressure switch which will turn the system off if there is not enough freon in it you may have a leak somewhere best to get it checked By acertified AC specialist

The S 500 battery is in the trunk on the passenger side look in the extreme right hand corner of the trunk lift up the mat you will see a black cover over the battery remove it in the battery is there

This happened to me once. If the connector to the coolant sensor is off the fan is automatically on. When I checked the the thermal sensor resistance I had it open. After replacing with a new one and there was a resistance, I plugged the connector in and the fan was still on. I opened the connector to see the wire broke off from the solder point to the metal plug, then it just like the connector off. After I re-soldered and snapped back the connector, it worked as normal.

If the fuse is blown for the blower then there is a short, that is not an answer, go to the blower and check to see that the blower motor connector has 12 volts to it when the blower is set to high speed on control, if it does then u need a new blower motor, if it doesn't then the control switch is defective or the blower motor speed control resistor is defective.

If it is your compressor turning on and off,I would suggest having your ac charge checked,if this is not the trouble you are talking about please add more info

Must be a loose connection with your battery or your car's CPU. Remove and reset the terminals. Make sure they are clean before putting them back in. Rub some 70 percent isopropyl alcohol on it and let dry. Don't clean it with a sandpaper. For the battery, make sure the terminals are not corroded. Clean well and then replace. Tighten it very well. Place a coating of grease thereafter to prevent further corrosion.
