W210 E420 lighting troubles, and tranny woes
My 1998 E430 Sport is having problems with lights in the dash. First of all, the lighting in the climate control unit is not working. I recently had an aftermarket in-dash cd player installed and think it may be related. Any ideas? My old deck didn't have any lights working on it except for the "ON" button.
Second, I was wondering if anyone has advice on how to remove the gauge cluster to change bulbs on that. I bought the hooks from Benz and am trying to figure out how to yank it out without breaking the cluster. Any pics would be helpful.
Third, I almost forgot. I'm having upshift trouble from 1st to second intermittently. Any ideas? car has 68k, does it need a tranny service? MBZ Dealer says its the tranny control module, $1400!?
