That worked for me, thank you. Mine had a dead lizard that was jamming the fan. Pretty easy fix.

Thank you

Thank you for very informative video. We don’t drive our 2021 GLE 450 so I was looking into getting a trickle charger and your video really helped.

Thank you!!!

Thanks. Appreciate your video. Very helpful.

Love you bro saved me

Can a maintenance chargeer be plugged into the cigarette lighter?

I think that Mercedes has been hiring a lot of mentally challenged engineers lately . Hiding the battery under the passenger seat shows their stupidity.

you cannot believe what stopped my fan from spinning! A frog!!!

Mine is working but chirping and squeeking. I already had to replace the bulb in the first year. Things are junk honestly. Luckily I didn’t pay full price and bought it on clearance.

Thank you. I thought I was going to have to buy a new Dynatrap. I followed your instructions changed the bulb and cleaned it. I was surprised and happy when it started working again. Thank you.

Thanks for posting. I don't know if you can answer this, but the red plastic cover for the positive terminal seems to be missing in my car. Is that important?

Wish thia would help me out tomorror, the parking lot guy didn't turn off my car my car battery dead

Is the fan supposed to run the moment you plug it in? This is my second one it was replacement from the first what a piece of crap.

Mine is a DT1260-2B. It failed after about three years. The fan quit, was not a mechanical problem although I did a thorough cleaning. After taking the unit all apart, many screws later found a circuit board inside the lid. I found a 220uf 35 volt electrolytic capacitor that only measured about 2uf. I replaced the cap and bingo, the unit took off. Caution, it is a switching power supply, be sure that when you work on it you have it unplugged. The warranty is only one year, I doubt the company will sell you a circuit board. Jim

My fan quit after a couple years, none of your fixes worked. Do not pull the fan out like you did, it snaps into the bearing and once you unsnap it, very difficult to snap back in. You have to remove the sticker and with small pliers snap the bearing back on with the white nylon washer. The reason the fan is now so noisy, you didn't assemble it correctly.

There should be an override for all Mercedes trunks. I don't want the electronic close

Thanks for the info. Ive replaced the bulb a few times but never had to work on the fan before. I took mine apart as shown and found half a dried out cicada in the fan blades! Once I got that out I cleaned the fan blades of all the buggy bits, turned it on and it runs like new! Didn't have to remove the blades and lube everything but now I know how to do it when needed! Thanks again!

This is best most detailed video on TH-cam for this problem 🙏🙏

Yours is not clean btw.. Remove the bearings and clean the gunk (old grease and dirt) between them and then assemble everything and apply a new oil on the cleaned bearings. It's not rocket science and not hard at all. It should run very quietly like when you first bought it.

My fan doesn't want to just pull out.Did you have to force it the first time or pop it out from underneath where the sticker was?

I own the model 1050 and upon changing my bulb, I noticed that my fan was not working. I use mine inside so it does stay much cleaner than if it were outdoors. I ordered a new fan for my model and that would not work either. I contacted my PC repair dude to check it out and it turns out that these units have a small mainboard inside and one of the capacitors had crapped out. He removed and replaced and wala, my unit is back to catching indoor bugs! I hope this post helps you have some direction when yours acts up.

Hello, I have the dt1775 model. The problem I having is how to get too the fan. Do u have any suggestions would be great. Thank you much.

Great video. Will be doing this on my '10 GL550, both screens broken. Screen part # is LQ080Y5DR04 (ebay it). I've found online sellers who claim this same part # works for both headrest monitor styles for 07-12 164 ML/GL & R-class, however can't confirm.

It's been cold outside for the last couple of days and today my wife called from the store reporting the rear hatch not wanting to close. Also the SOS teleAid was flashing and she had to cancel it a couple of times. We don't have a subscription anyway. She manually closed it and drove home but I noticed when she got here it wasn't latched all the way. This is a keyless go car so tried using the key fob to open and close it but nothing. I did some googling and found some info about how teleAid uses the rear handle to signal them for a remote unlock by having you hold the handle in for 20 seconds or so. Sure enough I looked and the handle was stuck in the upward position as if someone was holding it. When it is stuck it completely turns off the auto open and close of the hatch and sets of the SOS. It seemed road grime got in the handle pivot point and jammed it. I flushed the sides out with some contact cleaner and put a little moly grease on a thin feeler gauge and kind of slipped it in the sides to lube it up a little. It. Works great again. I know this is a different problem from the video but thought I'd share anyway in case someone was looking.

What happened if after changing the bulb still didn't light up? That's my problem

This doesn't work for my 07 gl450 it has different screens

ok

They work good but the one I got the wire to the fan to short and there is a connector in it... yeah as soon as I took fan off it didn't stay connected.... basically worthless now.

Im feeling a strong force of an army of people coming here brought by the algorithm

Thank you.

Mahalo! I’ve been trying to find a tool to get those pesky little yellow clips off thank you for your help.
