Location of computer interface port on 220ch

[tripcopeland]

Our shop has a 2000 S500 in for service and the SRS light is on. This is the first 220ch car we have worked on. A casual look under the hood did not reveal the location of the hand held computer interface port. We are starting to see the new S class more frequently. As these cars come off warranty I think we will be able to start many new threads on the quirky problems that lie ahead.

In the drivers footwell under the dash, kind of over near the hood release. It's not a round one like the 38 pin, it's more like what the domectic manufacturers use, a 16 pin. It has a flip open lid over it. Most newer design MB's are like this, like the S, the new C, the new SL and E class, the ML's are all like this too, "it's just like the ML" (that would have been a shorter answer)
