Power Socket - No Power When Car is Off - '90 420 SEL
 
I've got a '90 420 SEL and when the car is off, I don't get power to the cigarette lighter. Is this a common thing on Mercedes? I want to be able to use the power when the car is off, is there a way of connecting it so I'll get power when the car is off?

yes that is the design.. you would have to rewire that circuit.

Power is only on when the key is in #1 or #2 position. Hard to rewire because of access, but the radio has power all the time. Thick red wire.
