1998 E320 questions!!
Howdy guys...my name is jenn and I have just purchased (2 months ago ) a 1998 E320. It has 192,000 miles and I have a couple of questions. 1. About two weeks ago I was detailing the inside...had the Windows rolled down. Rolled them up when I was done parked car in garage and the next day none of the Windows work and neither does the outside mirror adjustment. I programmed my key this evening and what I heard sounded like a small motor running...about 3 seconds...and quits and then starts again. it sounds as if it is coming from under the passenger seat. Is this where the relay or a motor of some kind for the Windows is located?? All fuses have Bern checked...all ok. 2. A Mercedes mechanic fixed my tail light. Said it was a wiring issue. Well the car lot I bought it from didn't tell the mechanic about the head light issue. The parking lamp on the passenger side does not work...and when I turn my brights on the low beam lamp on the drivers side goes out...but works on low beam. All bulbs have been replaced and fuses checked. Could this be another wiring issue?? I am also getting a lamp defective message on the instrument panel. 3. I keep reading about the remote for the car controls the Windows. Can someone tell me how to program it? The remote that came with the car is the one with the key blade. 4. I beliIeve my Sun roof is either off track or needs a cable replaced. I'm pretty savy with my hands is this something I could do myself?? The Sun roof only opens about 4 inches and when its moving it sounds like its in a jam.
Even though I am a woman...please don't think I am dingy!!!
Thanks in advance for all of your help and knowledge!!! This forum rocks!!

Answer
It sounds like your detailing has disturbed the wiring.
I would suspect the seat harness, but it could easily have more issues.
FYI: The primary floor harness is $4770.00 USD.
I suggest taking it to a MB specialty shop.
