In this video I am showing the way I am dealing with Auxiliary Battery Malfunction problem.
This is unfortunately quite common issue across entire Mercedes model range. Dealership offers option to take back the old unit and take some ££ off the new one.
When this issue starts, I highly recommend to take care of it as soon as possible. You can still use your vehicle without an issue, however if your main battery will fail for whatever reason, you will be stuck. The main function of this Aux Battery/Capacitor is to hold enough charge to serve critical electrical components of the vehicle such as gear selector.

Could this be the issue if the comand system stops working randomly and turns on itself? Also reverse camera stopped working and the traffic sign system also stops working sometimes. I've replaced the 12v battery but the problem still happens but less often now

Don't listen to this dude... he said is not a battery it's actually this capacitor.. he's absolutely wrong and the auxiliary battery is above the passenger side rug..I hate when people come on here thinking they know what their talking about

@@Diamantiblu7 one of yor cables is damaged somewhere and is in contact with metal part of chassis. The moment you change fuse and power gets through that cable the shot circuit takes place and blows your fuse. Or the unit itself has short circuit and that keepa blowing your fuse.

@@tiptopmechanic1155 i checked again, i took aux battery off and put new fuses, left car running no problem. I then inserted the new aux battery again and it blows its fuse (448) straight away. Could it be the new auxiliary battery mercedes gave me faulty? Or still short circuit? Thanks for replying
