Need help removing dome lamp ass'y - C230
Can someone tell me how to remove the front dome lamp assembly in a 1999 C230K? I'm not talking about just getting to the lamps, but removing the entire assembly. There is a rattling noise coming from somewhere around this area (I suspect the sunroof mechanicanism) and most of the functions of the dome lamp, sunroof, and keyless entry receiver are not working. I don't see any mounting screws inside the assembly and can't see a way to get to any clips that might be holding it in place.
By the way, the local dealer has diagnosed the lack of functions in the dome lamp assembly as a bad module. Does this sound likely? I'm guessing it could be something as simple as a connector has come loose (hence the rattling?).
Thanks!
Barry
