Does anyone have a copy of a bulletin that was issued for some corroding wires or terminals on the 400E aux cooling fan circuitry? I seem to remember the dealer doing some work on my car's wiring years after the warranty had expired and I think they said that Mercedes would pay for it because of the bulletin. Thanks.

tsb's = no pay

recall= pay

Thanks. Then, I guess I should be asking if there were any recalls on the aux fan system for the 400E, since I doubt my dealer repaired it out of their own benevolence.

A TSB is a bulletin that Benz uses at the dealers when a proplem has come up, they are to check each car of that model only when the car is in their shop for service..if , in the check, they find that problem does exist, they do the recommended TSB free of charge ..the customer may not even know it was done. But there ar
e limitations.....
One of the dealer Techs will have more info on it and may post shortly..

You can find those tsb's on google

Thanks. I'm not having much luck Googling it. Are the TSBs something that MB considers proprietary or confidential?

This is from RECALL bulletin 94-0123..Feb 1994

You can have dealer run VMI (vehicle master inquiry) to make sure that recall has been done.
