So a few weeks back my car stated making a clicking noise when trying to start. Sometimes it wouldn't start at all. I kind of ignored the issue thinking it was a faulty battery. Then I realized my locks didn't work and trunk latch wasn't coming out. Today i solved both issues with a simple fuse. But now I have a new issue I created by trying to change out what I thought was a starter issue. While under car I cleaned off some wires and believe I messed something up that won't let me get out of park.

Relays in your trunk passenger side remove the "side liner" you will see a box you need to unplug it and take the black box out, take the computer board out from the box and you will find the four relay that needs to be replaced. it requires desolder and soldering new. what u can do prior is shake the computer board and hear if it rattle if it does then the 4 relay needs to be replaced part number (siemens v23078-c1002-a303)

check to see if they have a brake light switch linked to the brake pedal. When that goes bad, the brake lights won come on and it wont allow the car to come out of park. The car thinks that you're trying to shift out of park without your foot on the brake. It's a common problem in this era and age of Mercedes

Hey dude I saw one in a body shop, I believe it’s working but you have to work on it to complete it as full, the owner asked for $500, if your interested tell me and I’ll send you the address and you can go “or let someone to go” and look at it.

Hi Pete. Regarding the shifter: check the shifter bushings underneath on the passanger side of the tranny. You should have a shift rod which connects via a bushing and a clip. Bushings go and make it hard to shif. You may also hear a metal rattle when you shift. There is a special MBZ tool which makes insrallation a breeze! If not, check the shifter unit itself (harder to deal with). I am not sure how servicable they are, but there is a safety switch in there which could be broken. Really nice wheels on the 500. Any info about them?

@@petescarport nice! Thanks. I own a 99 s320. Bought it with 135k on the clock and now has 165k in less than 11 months of ownership (daily commute). The car does have issues as its old, but man these are wonderful to drive and work on. The straight 6 engine is super reliable too, with plenty of room to work around. I wanted a 600 to garage, baby, and weekend-drive but need a good example which is super hard to find. Good luck with your projects, you got a handfull 👍👍

My 95 s320l also had the same issues like yours( the trunk lid &soft close not working) do u know how to fix that problem other than change the fuse? On the other hand, check the condition of the PSE pump at the back of the rear seats to see if the pump running too long can burn the pump..n the vacuum system u said in the video behind the glove box is the Y11 block for the HVAC n I've been there it is a tedious work to do, so start with the vacuum distribution block on the passenger footwell,this small distribution block always develop cracks. 2. test the electronics of the PSE pump. Do the little lights on the door handles work when you lock and unlock the car? Secondly test if your alarm works. Lock the door, leave the window open and try open the door using the inside handle. If the alarm works, then chances are the electronics on the pump might be fine.. If the small lights on the handles, and alarm don't work, then your PSE might really need to be replaced. 3. Gear stuck at P, might be the 'neutral safety switch' ,need to be replaced.. the switch is engaged when in park or neutral..

So today I got the car out of park for good. I think it was the safety switch but I think I broke past it. Lol. Another person said they forced it and got it to work and it's been a few years. So I said what the hell and slowly forced it. Then it popped and is now working for good I hate to say it but you may be right about the pump. It worked for a few times after switching the fuse and then stopped again. Ironically it now states up perfect every time due to changing fuse. But now I have another new issue. I pulled my seat back all the way to test the brake light switch and now the gears are just spinning. Seat won't go forward or back. Ahhhh. The joys of owning the best car ever made

@@petescarport I've been a lot with my 140 ownership, sometimes I felt like want to get rid of it & find another one (last batch) n live happily hehe but what I can do is keep it until time will tell. About the pump n fuse , u should rectify the problem or not the fuse will burn out.. the pump will activate the safety procedures by switching off the pump or fuse will burn out again.. About the seats, my passenger seat also not working due to the module need to be replace..now my comfort module on its way & the seats adjustment,mirrors n the rear headrest n rear seat adjustment all not working except the passenger side window & rear left window are the one only works but before the c.module does this issues,my steering adjustment does the same thing like yours clicking for going up&down but front & back is ok.now my steering wheel are on the upmost so it looks weird cuz is too high for my liking..moral of the story, do not adjust until the fully up position or down position..or not u will regret it like me😅

im having the same clicking and lock issues. that clicking is so unusual since the starter still turns and starts the car while doing it. the car did sit for 6 years then for a year and a half under a new owner so maybe i'll just buy a bunch of fuses and swap everything out hahaha.

My s420 did the same thing I thought it was cause I parked on a slant the shifter got stuck but all I did was pressed the brake put a lot of force on it and it went into gear a week later it did the same thing Now it’s been like 5 months haven’t had that problem anymore

I am so mad that this worked. Lmao. So I basically swapped out the brake light switch and then planned to pull apart the shifter. Then I wiggled it and it went into gear. Everytime I put back to park and let go of brake it would lock up but with force went back to gears. I finally pulled with a good amount of force and heard a loud pop. Now it functions perfectly

Depends. The s500 is by far one of the best daily driving big cars you can get. They are reliable and fairly easy and cheap to work on. The s600 is a big statement and on a whole different level of car. But you wouldn't want to daily drive one unless you planned on spending more than it's worth in a short time. Even regular maintenance is way more due to engine size alone.
