Yet again, the gentlepeople of Mercedes shop shine!...I replaced all of the fuses in the exterior fuse box and, lo and behold, one of them(a white one) cracked the moment it attempeted to remove it. With all of the new fuses in place, power was returned to the dials.

Benzmac: where is the base module? I figure, while I am at it, I may as well raplace those fuses, too.

Thanks again

John
