Hazard, Blinker, Central Locking not working 1999 E300 - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

I am trying to figure out why my right and left blinkers, hazards, and central locking is not working. I have a 1999 E300. I have checked Fuse 41 and I am not sure what relays I need to check....I noticed that there is no relay in socket G. Any help would be great thanks!

aka signal acquisition and activation module or SAM is common to the functions which are not working on your car. Module is under hood, near firewall in fromt of driver position. A bunch of relays/fuses plug into the top of it.

I opened up the black cover that houses the ECU and K40 relay, is the 10/1 in this area or is it behind this black box?

Wrong side Husk.

Ok I was thrown off by the Technical Manual @ edsoto.com....This module is located next to the fuse box? any pictures? THANKS!

Mine is in the module box, at the very rear. Is this different for later 210s?

Maybe you'd want to call these guys and talk your problem over with them.

All I know for sure is what is in my car. My N10-1 looks nothing like that part. It is quite a bit larger.

The only module in the underhood fusebox on my car is N65, which controls parts of the traction control and the auxiliary fan.

On the 99 it is shown in the fuse box. See #93 (doesnt have a part # on the 96 detail although the relay is shown). http://www.detali.ru/cat/oem_mb2.asp?TP=1&F=210025&M=606%2E962&GA=722%2E608&CT=F&cat=45P&SID=54&SGR=040&SGN=03

Does anyone have a schematic for what each relay does? I have a feeling one of my relay's might have went bad but there is no schematic stating which relay corresponds to which electronics system...

Thanks for the links really helpful!

So I took my car to the dealer, $800 dollars later they tell me it was some loose wires underneath the fuse box.....No replaced parts......Gotta love the stealer

the fix sounds rather dubious to me. Have any of the MB techs here seen this same situation? If problem comes back, I'd scream for my eight bills to be returned.
