(cotinued from thread "MB power seat bulliten 1")
open the even side of the connector to expose the terminals. the
supplemental harness, 163 540 56 05, includes two fuse holders, a
ring terminal, and a two pole connector. both plastic shells are
supplied with the harness, but only one has the terminals installed.
the female terminals removed in the next step will be inserted in the
male side of the plastic connector. remove the wire terminal in
cavitys 12 and 8.
insert the wire removed from cavity 12 into cavity A of the new
connector, the wire from cav. 8 goes into cav. B of the new connector.
close the lock on the connector, then connect ti to the connector on the
harness.
remove the nut from the fuse box circuit 30 stud, and install
the ring
terminal, then tighten the nut.
set the fuse box in place and install 2 screws. route the new
harness
and 2 fuse holders into the are above the fuse box and install the E-box
cover with 5 screws.
remove the two 30A fuses for the power seats from the fuse box,
f32 and
f33. insall both of them in the new fuse holders.
twist the 2 fuse holders sideways and attach them to the rear
side of
the fuse box, using the wire tie.
replace the lid for the fuse box, and attach the - battery
terminal.
test operatio of the power seats and windows, note that the power
windows will operate if the ignition was on, switched off, until any
door is opened.
re-code the radio, reset the clock/date in the trip computer and
re-synchronize the sunroof.
"note: this procedure is not elligible for warrenty
reimbursement."
there you go, that is the basic procedure. just from reading
this
bulliten, i can tell that this job is a pain and a half. if you do not
have experience using the special tool to remove wire terminals, do not
attempt to do so. i do not reccomend trying to do this one yourself, i
think that it is not worth the hassle, and there are many possibilitys
of breakage or other damage. this will result in another trip to the
dealer + another harness. i will try and help to the best of my
abilitys if you do deceide to do this, but my honest opionion is don't
try it.
good luck,
