Is there a dead battery in my Mercedes?
No dead battery this morning – car cranked fine. However, when pulling up point 24 on the climate control it only showed 13.0 vdc with the engine running (too low). After a 5 mile trip, the battery terminal voltage on point 24 was back to 14.0 vdc. This probably means there was some battery drain over night.
Why does my Mercedes-Benz battery keep draining?
You try to start your Mercedes-Benz and the car is either completely dead or this happens: Battery drains happen when electronic equipment (consumer units) are constantly drawing current from the battery while the car is parked. One simple example is when lights are left on overnight. But it’s not always as simple as that.

Why does my Mercedes medic draw so much battery?
A radio receiver in the car continuously listens for wake up signal from the key. As the car receives a signal in the assigned frequency it wakes up to validate the key. This causes current draw for several seconds. If the car is left parked in high pedestrian traffic areas this could be a problem.
Is the Mercedes Batterie seat control module recalled?
This is ridiculous (fraudulent) considering the frequency and number of reports that these Seat Control Modules haven’t been recalled and batterie charged or replaced at Mercedes Benz expense. I have to jump start it every morning. For some reason at night the battery is drained.
