My cd changer front red / green lights do not come on. There are two red flashes on fiber optic which means there is power going in. There is 12 V on both power and wake-up wires.
Even without getting coded or closing the optic loom, should the cd changer light up ( on 6 buttons in front) When I hook it up to the pre wired plug, nothing happens except the fiber optic flashes. Or it will only light up after coding or closing the optic loom ? I had the feeling that it should light up regardless when power is supplied.
I installed it myself with instructions you gave me. It is for w211.
Car was prewired ( found the plug behind the ashtray )so did not have to remove the sill or carpet, just plug it.
Optic flashes twice but no display lights on 6 buttons. Even tried with optic loop with the head but no response from the changer. May be the changer is dead.
When you apply 12 volts (factory prewired plug), should the led lights on 6 buttons turn on ? Fuses are all good and there is power going to the changer as the optic flashes red.
Not yet. I want to get it coded but changer is not powering up.
Should I get it coded and then fix it ?
Would I have to get coded again if I buy another one if this one is defective ?
Regards.
It will not open to load the cds.
Buttons do not respond also.
In my GL320, all 6 lights come on when ignition is on , red when empty and green when with cd. Very confusing.
I installed a cd changer (Mp3) in my 2004 E320 but although it is an mp3 changer, it only plays regular cds and not mp3 cd.Any thing I can do to play mp3 format ?
Is it a stock MP3 CD changer? The vehicle AGW is coded to the specific set of modules installed.
If any module is replaced with a different one (with a different function and ID), the AGW will need to be initialized and coded again to recognize new module, ie. different CD changer.
I didn't even know MP3 CD was a thing. Too old or too young? Lol
Thanks a lot. It is a stock cd changer from another 2009 Mercedes E320. I meant Mp3 cd tracks.
My dealer in Kitchener, Ontario will not code it because they did not install it. It does play normal tracks.
