Where is the motor relay for the Mercedes-Benz C200 located?
2 Answers
The motor relay for the Mercedes-Benz C200 is located in the control cabinet or control box. Exterior of the Mercedes-Benz C200: The front face of the Mercedes-Benz C200 is stylish and fashionable, with the headlights incorporating warm-toned light sources, creating a very elegant visual effect. Performance of the Mercedes-Benz C200: The Mercedes-Benz C200 is a front-engine, all-wheel-drive version, equipped with the M274 920 four-cylinder 2.0 direct-injection turbocharged engine, with a maximum power output of 184 kW and a maximum torque of 300 Nm. It can sustain maximum torque output from 1200 rpm up to 4000 rpm. It is paired with a 7-speed AT automatic transmission.
I've worked on many Mercedes-Benz models, including the C200. The motor relay is located in the fuse box under the front passenger seat - just open that black plastic cover to see a row of relays. The starter relay is usually labeled 'Starter' or 'Motore' and is slightly larger than standard relays. If you can't find it, there's a diagram on the back of the cover that directly shows its position. Remember to disconnect the vehicle's power supply before removing it. But honestly, if you're not very familiar with electrical systems, don't attempt to replace it yourself. This component is connected to the engine management system, and improper handling can easily fry the ECU module. Last time I worked on a car where the owner tried replacing the relay themselves after watching an online tutorial, it triggered fault codes and nearly caused ignition failure.
