PrzemoF

There is a manual on the Net how to take apart passenger seat in E-Klasse W211 to replace the sensor mat (I saw it!!!), but I can't find it. Help please!!

Edit: Found it!

There actually not that bad to do i could explain to you if required. We do two r three of them a month. Should be ok to do yourself if you no what you are doing. Do you have the required tools to reset the airbag light.

Thanks! I don't have SD, but I hope it won't be required.

Yeah I do them all the time, not a big deal. I have managed to repair a few too but then the price of the sensor dropped so it was just as easy to order one up and fit new and get the car back to the owner ASAP.

One failed on my own C-Class the night before the NCT and I discovered that by straightening out the whole mat the light would stay off..........so I put it under the mat under the seat......the light stayed off and it passed !

You can buy emulators for them too, but best to replace and keep it as it should be.

Hello everyone.....
Thanks for having me here

My problem is that I have the dreaded Red SRS on my dashboard...

I got a Mercedes E211 Temic emulator and my teenage son decided he would fit it and surprise me......

Well that he did.

I am now left with an emulator and have 3 wires out of it....Red, White and Brown

I have 3 wires going back to the SRS Module. Colours are Brown, Blue&White and Pink&White...

Can anyone one please tell me which wire matches which

Many thanks

emulator wiring is red +12v,brown is earth and white is signal as for the wires in the car you can use a multimeter or similar to determine which wire is 12v and which one is earth then the remaining one has to be signal.

Search on ebay - maybe there will be some schematic.

Here is ho to connect the unit, but I'm not sure if that's the same type as yours.
(check product pictures)

P.S. I hope to have the sensor replaced next week
