Hi Guys! 2000 E320, 81000 miles: Lights just went off in the climate control panel. Anybody knows how to tackle this problem? Appreciate it!

 

You need to pull out the climate control console with the same little tools used to pull out the radio and there is a small bulb underneath that you need to replace. Very easy to do....so don't take to the dealership and have them do it. I took my to the dealership and the service tech let me borrow the two metal pulls to pull out the climate control console and he sold me a bulb for $5 to replace it with. I ended up getting online and order me a set of metal pulls for like $7. Mercedes wanted to charge like $19 a piece or something crazy.

Hope this helps.

 

Yes , Tht is what I jsut did. The climate control unit comes out in less then 5 secounds and the bulb sits underneath. A very inexpensive and easy fix..Tools from Mercedes cost me three dollars and bulb was 1.50 (CDN) now available aftrer market and I think it is a #194

 

I am trying to pull out my climate control console to repace the bulb in it but I do not know where to those little tool from can any one help me.

 

they are the radio tools,some auto stores like autozone what have you ,have sets of radio tools that have an assortment see if one is applicable to the mb radio.if not ebay or dealer.
