Location of connection in trunk for CD changer 1999 C320

concept is same. to aid in location proper FO lead, grab laser pointer and shine
into either of the two LED lens at the head unit end. have someone look for
light out the other end of the available/unused FO terminators in the rear. use
the FO plug which lights up.

see above photo for picture of power lead jack. plug is tiny, small black plug,
black harness.

your changer should be MC-3110, MC-3010, or MC-3198

i found the power wire and also the fiber wires
i shinned a light in the fiber wires to determine which 1 to hook up
i hooked up the feed wire and i can eject the cd changer magazine so i know there is power to it but i have tried both fiber wires and on the head unit it stills says no cd changer when i push the cd button
does it need to be reset by mercedes dealer or what else do i need to do ????????????????????????????????????????????????/
thank you

in this order....moving to the next suggestion only if the preceding one
fails to recognize the changer.

try #1 - pull the fuse to the radio. this serves to possibly reboot the radio
and any internal memory. wait 10 mins (pulled that out of a hat). reinsert
fuse. turn on head unit and see if that did the trick.

try #2 - pull the radio and reach in and pull the power leads (or pull the
chassis fuse from the back of the radio. wait 10 mins and reinsert and try
powering on the head unit and test changer

try #3 - pull the battery NEG lead and wait 10 mins. reattach. BE CLEAR that
this may likely erase memory from your seats, mirrors, windows and moonroof.
if so, you'll need to reset - less than 5 mins

try #4 - let your dealer do it but hopefully they wont charge you because
this is such a stupid, silly few seconds of first aid.
