UPDATE: FIXED! So I was messing around with the fuse box today and figured I'd try to take a look at the fuses. I didn't have a real explanation of what each of the fuses were for. Special thanks to Sandroad for the link to the fuse diagram with explanations to exactly what each of the fuses...

Thanks for the link. The camera was a garbage camera. It just died. There were no issues until I took it out. And no disassembly required. The wire was just run up the side of the dash where it meets the door. The wire was stuffed behind the weather seal, behind the A-pillar trim, and into the...

The spot where the add a fuse was located was still tight when I reinstalled the regular fuse. I don't have the add-a-fuse anymore or I would try this. Maybe I'll pick one up another one and try it. I guess it couldn't hurt at this point. Its driving me nuts. I let my car warm up for 30 minutes...

5 month update: The problem has not been solved and it's getting extremely frustrating. The whole summer I didn't have any issues because I was riding my motorcycle most of the time, but also because the temp never got cold enough for the problem to show itself. So I forgot about it, really...

While I did check that the fuses were good, it's possible that I didn't seat the fuse well enough. It's kind of an awkward angle getting up under the dash. I definitely didn't clean the fuse or the socket. I'll check that next. The compartment is completely dry. No signs of water. The only fuse...

I don't have any USB ports in my vehicle.

I recently un-installed a non-working, previous owner-installed dash cam from my 2009 200 and now I'm having a problem with the multi function display not starting up until I'm well into my drive. About 10-15 minutes into my ride. This is a new problem that started after removing the dash cam...

Honestly, I'd rather have the car than the money. But I guess it wasn't as bad as it could have been!

Hi all, sorry for the constant delays. New house, new wife, and a baby on the way realigned my priorities. I just wanted to post an update to this thread. The previous fixes all worked well and the AHC system was working fine for the most part. I was having an issue once in a while where the...

@ramangain I appreciate the hospitality! However, I believe I found the main problem! I realized, based on my very limited electrical experience, that the height sensors are just potentiometers. Which are relatively low tech. When I installed the new sensors I noted that the front right sensor...

Correction!: I'm an idiot. Sorry for the rapid fire responses everyone, I'm posting as I make discoveries. So I just realized I've been doing the active test wrong this whole time. On the procedure it says to use comfort mode. I didn't realize that meant the selector had to be all the way to...

Thanks @IndroCruise I've attempted the active test with the bridged wire in the diagnostic port. The vehicle would not move. I have connected the vehicle to TechStream and took the picture below. (Sorry about the bad picture quality. Old Windows computers really make taking camera screenshots a...

Then that would be the one. Connecting the correct terminals in the diagnostic port in the engine bay. This is the "manual" active test. I will try this tomorrow.

Are you talking about the diagnostic port pins in the engine bay?

I can't see any obvious alteration in the wires or ECU. If there has been tampering, it was extremely cleanly done. So, I let the car sit for a while in my driveway and when I started it back up, the indicator showed neutral but the vehicle was obviously in HI. I selected the down button, at...
