Wow, you spent months and $ reaching out to forums and other Mercedes mechanics to find the reason it wouldn't work, finally you found someone who knew what they were doing! Incredible and love the video thanks for sharing Eben
Major Props to Jesus for spending the time going through the wires and finding the issue. Most techs would pass this off to someone else or give up. He deserves major appreciation for finding this!
I have an SLK55 AMG, and she is a freakin MONSTER! I love this car, and will NEVER sell her. She is just a toy, that only comes out in perfect weather, never seen rain. Enjoy it, brother.
I love it if you want your car to run better than the day was brand new I highly recommend checking out this playlist on everything I've done to my car since the day I bought it you will be so happy with your car afterwards when I got my car in Road like a Ram 3500 pickup truck it had run flat tires that were bad 500 treadwear 19 inch wheels I went to an 18-in wheel toyo Praxis Sport tire super soft 240 tredware it rides about 35% smoother I also did all the fluids and it shifts about 30% quicker and it makes about 11% more power to the wheels it also averages about three and a half average miles a gallon better truly a transformation and quite the process to do but when you not your way at it one step at a time it's pretty achievable in a few weeks you could easily get it all done. My car went from driving like a 7 out of 10 and now drives like a 9 out of 10. th-cam.com/play/PLB_ftWArBFdd-6mgaMuj9bNs7DvKRpNQm.html
I use a dedicated circuit tester to find a broken wire as it's faster than measuring for continuity but still that was the proper repair and the proper job done. 👍🇨🇦
Yeah I mean I think those wires have quite a bit of stress on them I think ideally both wires should have been replaced with a better wire bundle however it would have taken more time and each wire from Mercedes would have probably costed a ton of money so I'm happy with what I got done but I think if you really wanted to bulletproof it you would go with the new wires on both sides👍
Converted all my fluids to amsoil best decision ive had, done both differentials front and rear,transfer case,transmission and engine oil.. what a difference vehicle is so smooth i forget its on sometimes😂😂
So crazy how Mercedes cut corners on cheap wiring. Everything ever needed so far on my SL I've done myself Just last week I fixed my wheel tilt mechanism.
Yeah I think the wire bundle was twisted too tight basically the outside wires strangled the inside wires and cut right through if there would have been more play in Slack I think it wouldn't have worn out as quick
Hi! Thank you for your SL experience sharing. I think I have the same problem. Where should I go to fix it? Electrician or car Mechanic? Also, How much did it cost you to fix the wiring, if you do not mind asking. Thanks.
If they would have reprogrammed the rear Sam and bought a new one at factory retail along with the harnesses and the tech charge for install I bet it could have touched $11,000
Oh yeah it's amazing what the dealer can do if they want to they can basically make it so expensive that you just have to trade it in..... And that's why most people drive a very inexpensive car and low quality but they always buy a new one because they're afraid to not have a warranty.
In the plastic parts that break in the coolant area really rough. This car all of a sudden just had tons of little plastic parts that broke and it looks like Mercedes is now making them metal to rubber hose instead of metal to plastic back to metal I'm sure they're having a lot of breakdowns. I would assume it's all about making money on parts in the parts department for Mercedes and labor. The horrible part is all those parts will keep you stranded if the coolant line breaks where the wiring in the trunk will not get you stranded so definitely a big difference. Now I know why most people say don't keep your Mercedes till it's 10 years old get rid of it before then because of all the little plastic parts that break tons and tons and tons of little parts
I love the upper cylinder lubricant and the signature series oil best oil ever congrats to the winners I won the new years give away super blessed love the Chanel keep lubbing eban

Correct what happened was the bundle was twisted tightly as it opened and closed it squeezed the wires together and the chafing cut right through them the wire bundle was not designed correctly. Most likely a first year problem they probably corrected it later because they made that car from 2013 to I believe 2021

Congratulations to the winners, still haven’t tried any of the products yet.
Major Props to Jesus for spending the time going through the wires and finding the issue. Most techs would pass this off to someone else or give up. He deserves major appreciation for finding this!
👍, he's great guy😃
I love the first cut to the clip of the prize winners. It's awesome you don't have to work for 12 hours a day anymore.

Congrats to the winners 🥳 🎉 🎊
And this is why a good multimeter like a Fluke is best to always have on hand.
Glad you got it taken care of eben

OMG I know how that is. Diagnosis is HELL when wires snap.... Them too find them 😵💫 my job is in the same category.
That's cool where do you work at?
Amsoil is the only way to go! Thanks!

glad it was a simple fix you're going to love that ratchet and don't forget to have yourself a great day lol 💪💪👍
☕️❤️😊
Glad to see it's Fixed now. Smooth ride SL550. You going to put in Sport's Exhaust's next in it?
For now it's going to stay well original I really enjoy having a nice quiet car👍
Hi Eben if it’s possible it would be cool to see a cold pour on the new Amsoil Commercial Grade Diesel Oil.
😉, thanks Andy yeah if I get the freezer started up again I will definitely do that thank you😃
Hi! Thank you for your SL experience sharing. I think I have the same problem. Where should I go to fix it? Electrician or car Mechanic? Also, How much did it cost you to fix the wiring, if you do not mind asking. Thanks.
Great questions I would get a mobile mechanic that does electrical and have him fix it as far as cost it was very inexpensive.
Dang I was so close. I don't know the tax rate there so my guess was before taxes.
😉
Brother Eben. You have a good Mercedes mechanic. Dealer would have changed all the harnesses and charged you $3-4k....
Wouldn't surprise me a bit
If they would have reprogrammed the rear Sam and bought a new one at factory retail along with the harnesses and the tech charge for install I bet it could have touched $11,000
@@Syntheticoilprotection wow....omg....that's why people are scared to own a German car unless you find a good mechanic like yours.
Oh yeah it's amazing what the dealer can do if they want to they can basically make it so expensive that you just have to trade it in.....
And that's why most people drive a very inexpensive car and low quality but they always buy a new one because they're afraid to not have a warranty.
@@Syntheticoilprotection so true.
Mercedes needs to do something better about the quality of their electrical.
In the plastic parts that break in the coolant area really rough. This car all of a sudden just had tons of little plastic parts that broke and it looks like Mercedes is now making them metal to rubber hose instead of metal to plastic back to metal I'm sure they're having a lot of breakdowns.
I would assume it's all about making money on parts in the parts department for Mercedes and labor.
The horrible part is all those parts will keep you stranded if the coolant line breaks where the wiring in the trunk will not get you stranded so definitely a big difference.
Now I know why most people say don't keep your Mercedes till it's 10 years old get rid of it before then because of all the little plastic parts that break tons and tons and tons of little parts

Too bad Amsoil don't make electronics , right. LOL. German cars always have electrical issues
😁😄😉
Hey Love the content. I'm wondering if anyone nows if Amsoil has a EP220 equivalent Grease? Thanks

Damn wires
😃😄
Wow, both sides have multiple broken wires? Seems like a poor design
Correct what happened was the bundle was twisted tightly as it opened and closed it squeezed the wires together and the chafing cut right through them the wire bundle was not designed correctly.
Most likely a first year problem they probably corrected it later because they made that car from 2013 to I believe 2021
Dam German cars poor engineering who runs wires near hinges and on a trunk that open and closes.
😁
