You are Awesome!!! Thank you so much!!! Fixed this issue in my CL 500. Got a lot of rain and the same spot filled up with water causing the same issue! Glad to have the radio back.
@@wilie09 My man, I'm so glad it worked for You. Car without music is worse, than without AC. And thank You for getting back to me, and letting me know. Appreciate it brotha.
Just want to say Thank You for saving me also. I was just gifted a 2001 w220 S500 designo and the Bose stereo started acting up intermittently with "no cd changer" then after 200 mile trip, suddenly "magazine empty" and stereo worked for the rest of THAT day. Then "no cd changer", even though I have a few more of the fiber optic cables (phone, navigation) in my vehicle your TRICK worked for me perfectly! Now I use a FM transmitter in the cig lighter with a USB loaded with MP3's and Bluetooth from Amazon and it is totally modernized and sounds GREAT! Thanks! Plus, I can always get a rebuilt cd changer and put everything back to original!
thank you, my friend, with your video, you saved me a lot of money. and because we don't know each other, I'il drink a wisky for your health. thanks again
Sooner or later it happens, and it happened to my car too. Video was great, in less then 15 minutes I had the cd-charger by-passed at a cost of 0$/€. - GREAT SOLUTION -
Hey my radio no longer has it’s options such as ambient modes driver optimization etc it jus says classical pop and manual and the sound completely stopped im not surr what settings messed up help please
Does the circuit have to be completed if the cd player got removed by someone previous to me? Is that why im not getting sound? I see a plug ik guessing for the cd changer but no cd changer in sight! Mine is a w202 94
Hey i have a c280, the gears were catching a few times then all of a sudden one morning i started it and when i went to leave the gear shift wouldn't move like it was stuck. The battery light came on that week also, then ilafter it sit that day i had to jump it off to start it back up. Could it be the battery causing the gears not to ahift ?
Thanks man u saved me alot of money and phone calls to dealerships I did the same thing u did and my radio works but the cd player doesn't work does that have to do with the cd changer
I'm having the same issue with no sound from my radio. I have 2015 c300 and it has the Audio 2.0 Burmester system. I dont have a CD changer. I see the amp in the trunk and when I pulled out the fiber cable from the amp there was no light on. I have looked through a ton of internet suggestions and nothing seems to work.
I checked to see if the automated voice would say something when i pull the phone lever on the steering wheel and nothing. Do you think it’s my phone module? I have a 2002 cl55 and after a heavy storm yesterday I have no sound. Will this process work on my car?
Thx for this video man i work tomorrow to see if it works. I have also the same problem no sound anymore but i have the bose system do you have it also?
Blessed Credits I didn’t do it... my radio went out about a month ago, also de AC. I replaced the fuse and the AC Worked... radio didn’t still, I was about to do what This video said... my ac fuse blew again. I replaced it with a 20 amp instead of the 10 or 15 that the AC FUSE is... and then magically my radio worked again... so didn’t have to anymore 🤷🏻♂️
In W221 cd changer is i front, so it can not be the same problem. But I guess it's the same optical wire loop system. So all You have to do is to find faulty component. Have You checked the fuses?
@@rastahomestead6097 Ahhh okay...so it didn't work still. Can I disconnect everything else and just directly keep the one fiber optic connection from amp to the stereo? I won't have to bypass anything anymore if I remove all other modules and CD changer right? I have a 2003 S500.
If cause is the same, it will work. Just try it, it is easy 30min job. And You don't break anything. The wire You remove, could be put back together without any problem.
@@blessedcredits3166 It indicates the same problem. You have to find faulty component in audio chain, by bypassing it. Does cd changer, telephone work?
@@blueninja9188 Simply unplugging will not help, optical circuit should be closed, so You have to do the same with phone module cable as I did with CD changer.
Check if power comes to Your cd changer. It is one of two cables that comes into CD changer. One is optical cable, another is power cable. It should be red or orange wire, and should give You 12V, when radio is on.
@@blueninja9188 You have to take everything out of that compartment, clean it, and make drain plugs work again. If You skip that step, You will destroy components again, after repairing.
@@rastahomestead6097 What kind of problems? I think it's just sitting outside. My 220 sat for almost a year at one time with fuel stabilizer and battery disconnected. It didn't get issues from it. But it was in a garage.
Thank you! this was the best help from all the videos. Rusted CD player. Great Job
You are welcome, my friend! Glad was able to help You!
This saved me also...driving without music in this machine is no fun..thanks man🙌🏽

Thanks I’m Having the same issue in my 2003 w220 .. just started doing it
Best of luck!

And I did it on my s430 and it worked right away
Great. Nice to hear it.

Where do you buy the looper?
Thank you
Im gonna to try this out
Thanks man u saved me alot of money and phone calls to dealerships I did the same thing u did and my radio works but the cd player doesn't work does that have to do with the cd changer
Yes, it does. It's fried.
I'm having the same issue with no sound from my radio. I have 2015 c300 and it has the Audio 2.0 Burmester system. I dont have a CD changer. I see the amp in the trunk and when I pulled out the fiber cable from the amp there was no light on. I have looked through a ton of internet suggestions and nothing seems to work.
Since Your car is 15 years newer, first of all, You have to hook up some diagnostic tool, and check what it tells.
I checked to see if the automated voice would say something when i pull the phone lever on the steering wheel and nothing. Do you think it’s my phone module? I have a 2002 cl55 and after a heavy storm yesterday I have no sound. Will this process work on my car?
It should work the same. First of all check out Your trunk, and what components do You have there. I believe some of it were flooded, and fried.
Where did the third cable come from I only have in and out
I don't know what You mean? It is optical loop cable. It connects all devices.
Thx for this video man i work tomorrow to see if it works.
I have also the same problem no sound anymore but i have the bose system do you have it also?
Yes, same.
hello a month ago i didn't have any signal i did what you do from the video the music got better but everything stopped again where can you direct me
Something else has fried. You have to eliminate components one by one.
Mine went out last month... I will try this tomorrow
Good luck!
Did it work
Blessed Credits I didn’t do it... my radio went out about a month ago, also de AC.

@@pakotako7815 That is very odd, and I'm sure, that it didn't fixed itself, so should be gone again soon.
I replaced fuse but nothing changed. What fuse did you change out?
I got another question today I lost sound to it again ! I checked the fuses it’s still good idk what can it b
Do You get power to all components? Amp, telephone, etc. If Yes, You have to eliminate defective component from optical loop.
Ok
hello this worked on my w220 but after weeks of raining still it messed up and sound does not come what can i do also ?
Maybe it fried amplifier this time. You have to fix drainage in the boot first.
I done the same and still dont work,what is next step???
Same bro , did you fix yet
Nice my sound went out 3 days ago any chance this will work on 2008 s550?
In W221 cd changer is i front, so it can not be the same problem. But I guess it's the same optical wire loop system. So all You have to do is to find faulty component. Have You checked the fuses?
Rasta Homestead that’s Oh ok. That is what I was checking to see. Maybe if it’s the radio fuses or the sound system fuses.
@@yearight1800 If You have access to diagnostic tool nearby, that would be easier. Let me know Your outcome.
I have to try this. My cd changer never worked but I still had sound before.
didnt work on my car, , looks like i got something else wrong.
so are you unplugging the cd changer and then using the cd changer plug to go into the amp?
just trying to see the big picture. have same problem
A have a cl500 w215 (99') my problem is that the radio plays from the middle but the speakers on the door don't work :/ hope y can Help a little bit .
That's not the same problem. How about rear doors? Does sound comes from there?
@@rastahomestead6097 I have only sound from the middle over the radio /Navi and the bass works normal but no sound from a speaker ...
@@paokis97 No idea, bro. Could be wiring, could be settings. Weird problem, and Your description is a bit vague.
Mine didn't have the phone module when I got it. The sound doesn't come either. How do I close the loop for phone module and where is it located?
Mines either I was wondering where the 3rd cable came from
You don't have to close the loop for phone module if it's not there. Just close the loop for cd changer.
@@rastahomestead6097 Ahhh okay...so it didn't work still. Can I disconnect everything else and just directly keep the one fiber optic connection from amp to the stereo? I won't have to bypass anything anymore if I remove all other modules and CD changer right? I have a 2003 S500.
@@hib1326 You can remove anything You want from a loop, as long as it stays "loop". I would bypass cd changer first.
I got sound now but only on my trunk speaker
You ever figure out why
Will this work on s430?
If cause is the same, it will work. Just try it, it is easy 30min job. And You don't break anything. The wire You remove, could be put back together without any problem.
The radio says system unavailable then shuts off every time I cut it on. No sound nothing works it just keeps cutting off every 20 sec.
@@blessedcredits3166 It indicates the same problem. You have to find faulty component in audio chain, by bypassing it. Does cd changer, telephone work?
Nope. It says sound unavailable, the telephone doesn't work or gps it cuts off every 20 seconds
I want to try this but I don't want to break anything
My wires are different from yours do you have email I can show you
simonas.st@gmail.com
I check the phone module that’s what it is no power comin to it ima check the fuse
It is possible to disconnect phone module the same way, as I've showed with cd changer.
Ok I’m gonna unplug the phone module after the I check the phone fuse
@@blueninja9188 Simply unplugging will not help, optical circuit should be closed, so You have to do the same with phone module cable as I did with CD changer.
Vundervar
Didn't work for me 😂
I try it an still no sound
Hi! Have You checked if Your cd changer is fried? If not, could be telephone module, or something as simple as fuse. What have You checked so far?
Yes the cd changer is fried
Check if power comes to Your cd changer. It is one of two cables that comes into CD changer. One is optical cable, another is power cable. It should be red or orange wire, and should give You 12V, when radio is on.
An the loose wire started smokin I’m guessing the amp got flooded too
@@blueninja9188 You have to take everything out of that compartment, clean it, and make drain plugs work again. If You skip that step, You will destroy components again, after repairing.
These cars just don't like living outside.
Also, they don't like to sit. My W221 was sitting for 6 months, and now because of it, there's bunch of problems, that I have to address.
