Bob, is quite helpful on the phone troubleshooting your stereo issues. Bob get 10 thumbs ups for all his help. These folks actually will help you, trust me I am for real.
Excellent. Just by seeing this video, now I know why I have no sound from the 05 clk320 I just bought. The CD Changer is missing and if this a fiber loop system, that's the break. Thanks for this.
Thank you *so* much. Finally!! I found the answer to getting my audio back! I've been looking *everywhere*, trying to avoid paying to fix this. My CD changer was the problem in mine, too. Is there an option to add an auxiliary to the loop? My car doesn't have an auxiliary input that I've found.
So this also shows that if the radio or amp don’t “flash back” then there’s an issue with those devices. Awesome video will try this on a ML500 Designo edition
Thanks for the great video! What should I do if I want to replace the stereo itself? What to do between Bose amp and the new stereo with no fibre optic?
Thank you for the video. My CD changer had been removed when I bought my ML350 from an auction. The fiber optic connector under the passenger seat does not blink at all. Can I still try the by-pass?
I have a c class 2012 all the radio functions work except when I turn up and down the volume there is no sound from the speakers, I did a circuit check and it tells me that loudspeakers open, you have a video related to that case.
Are you guys still in business?? How can I reach you and can you repair my 2004 mercedes ml500 radio?? I have the low fm volume problem, everything else works fine. Thanks
Hello - great channel! i have a 2000 ML320 and the volume level when turning the volume knob, will not respond properly. for example when rotating CW, you have to turn sometimes 4-5 rotations and then will raise abruptly; have you seen this problem?? Thanks.
I bought that coupler and loop. I'm going to try both. I have. O sound in my cayenne 04. I replace the stereo and I have. No sound. Checking several videos . And all of them say is the cd changer. Fingers crossed
The fiber optic in the radio blinks. Should the fiber optic blink at the amp?? I have fiber optic signal to the amp but nothing out?? I have nothing at the CD changer but when I try to eject the cassette the radio power down and then back up?? I disconnected it and used the coupler to bypass it..
Bob, good morning, Trying to find where the amp is on my 08 Mercedes Benz CLK 350 Cabriolet. Checked all the fuses everything is good, but the SAT and sound icons are missing and there is no sound. Everything is on Navigation map all working no sound. The amp is the last fuse I need to check. Need the location. Do you have a video for CLK 350?
My W210 has got problem with intermittent echo sound, Audio shop ask if my vehicle has amplifier behind? I see some comment on MB forum that it is about the grounding issue, and found some filter at aftermarket at ebay. I'm not sure if it is the amplifier problem, my vehicle has be replaced by Pioneer DVD head, removed the CD changer, but keep the BOSE OEM amplifier.
My CD changer blinked inside bot not on the cable. Does this mean my CD changer is bad? Also my amp doesn't blink at all. But I read that if this happens it's whatever is before it in the loop. Is this true?
My aftermarket stereo in my 2005 s500 is draining the battery. I'm told it's has to do with my fiber optics... The by-pass by Alvin doesn't support Bose????
In theory. But on each component disconnected, you must make a looping fiber optic connection on each component not being used. They're all still getting power, so if they don't read a signal, it'll tell your head unit something is wrong. I'm not 100% sure this will work, but I'm 90% sure... Lol. Try just running it to the amp first and see if that works, if not then do the looping trick. It's a plug that goes into the inputs from the optics that loop back into the other slot beside it. It's used to bypass that component like the Tele, Disc-changer, or the amp itself.
I do have a question for my 2000 s500. It has the CD changer, the radio, the amp and the phone module. I removed phone module. And now no sound. From what I gathered id take the light out of the plug that went into cell module put those in a coupler and I should get sound back correct? I've already got on star and made cell module inactive so I'm thinking I just need to do the coupler from the module i removed. I also have a language module do i still need that since i disconnecting the cell phone module
Question Does the CD CHANGER still need power when you bypass it ?? If you bypass the CD CHANGER does it still have to have the power supply connected ?
I did as suggested in the video. Had a quick ? When looking for the lights to come on each unit I notice the light on wire itself comes on first then the light on unit comes on after. My main issue is stereos sound cones on and odf.
I have w203 and regular mercedes cd player in it. Bose only speakers and amplifire. Also have mobile Nokia connection. I buy command 2.0 for w203 and clk, orginal parts. But when i connect command 2.0 i have no sound but unit have power. Please help me.
Hi I Have a 2002 S430 I am getting the red light on the radio and on the amp and also through the optical cords but still no sound any suggestions?I would appreciate it thank you
If you never figured it out is going to be the telephone module under rear passenger side the fiber optic lines run from the back of the head unit to the amp to the cd charger to the rear telephone antenna signal amplifier and telephone module back to the head unit. Your welcome! You can remove everything and just leave the amp and the head unit that will solve everybody's problem...
Im trying to figure out my buddy's.. the only sound i get is a thumping sound out all the speakers.. ive changed the amp, ive changed head units and still same thing
Hi. Can someone advise how to connect the BE 6094 radio to a Mercedes ML that does not have an optical network. After switching on, the radio will display the logo and then turn off. Well thank you.
Do the sound signals go trough this cable? I have a mercedes w203 with bose. Are trying to replace the original cd-player with a 2din. But i can't get any sound..
On my 2001 s500 the problem a have and it doesn't happen often but I can be listening to the radio and out of no where I loose sound then I have to turn the car off let it sit for a while and the sound will be back. Any idea what that can be?
Any one know or can advise me on how to watch a youtube or read directions showing how to removal the 6cd player frame the rear luggage compartment on the MB SL550 2008
Would be a good video, but he does not reply to any questions. I have a 2012 SL63 with the Harmon Kardon system. Just 6 months ago my sound started going out. After my car sits for 24hr the sound usually comes back. Took it to the dealership and they said the amp was over heating, but that was a lie. I can turn my stereo on and the sound will go out in seconds. Then sometimes it will play for days and never go out. Sometimes I cab play it loud and it will go out. Really is confusing and I can’t trust Fletcher Jones Mercedes in Las Vegas because they always try to fix things that don’t need replacement.
did you ever find out what was wrong with the radio. I am having the same problem with this android video player. I was told I need a can bus decorder for my boss system
Hi there! I'm currently experiencing the same problem with my 2003 mercedes ml350. I was wondering if you ever found a solution to your problem? I'm trying to avoid spending hundreds on a whole new radio. Thanks!
Hey friend, I’ve been having the no sound problem on my Mercedes w203 that has the Bose amplifier. Right off the bat my amp makes a clicking noise. Does that mean that the amplifier need to be replaced? Or should I go ahead and check the fiber optics? Thank you!!!
Bob, is quite helpful on the phone troubleshooting your stereo issues. Bob get 10 thumbs ups for all his help. These folks actually will help you, trust me I am for real.
I need bob on the phone
Excellent. Just by seeing this video, now I know why I have no sound from the 05 clk320 I just bought. The CD Changer is missing and if this a fiber loop system, that's the break. Thanks for this.
Excellent description on how the connectors work!! So helpful thank you
Great video straight to the point and very informative. Keep it up. Without people like you, used car dealers shops wouldn't survive.
Thank you *so* much. Finally!! I found the answer to getting my audio back! I've been looking *everywhere*, trying to avoid paying to fix this. My CD changer was the problem in mine, too. Is there an option to add an auxiliary to the loop? My car doesn't have an auxiliary input that I've found.
Finally a video that help me troubleshoot the problem I'm having with my audio and locating the amp
So this also shows that if the radio or amp don’t “flash back” then there’s an issue with those devices. Awesome video will try this on a ML500 Designo edition
No red light at the amp or sirus all fuses good radio screen functions no sound.
What if no audio, but speakers give engine whine noise? Grounding wire? Amp? Head unit acts normally just no sound.
Thanks for the great video! What should I do if I want to replace the stereo itself? What to do between Bose amp and the new stereo with no fibre optic?
Thank you for the video. My CD changer had been removed when I bought my ML350 from an auction. The fiber optic connector under the passenger seat does not blink at all. Can I still try the by-pass?
Thankyou your info got me to get sound back
I have a c class 2012 all the radio functions work except when I turn up and down the volume there is no sound from the speakers, I did a circuit check and it tells me that loudspeakers open, you have a video related to that case.

hello, is there a way to connect cd player and bose amp to aftermarket radio?
My aftermarket stereo in my 2005 s500 is draining the battery. I'm told it's has to do with my fiber optics... The by-pass by Alvin doesn't support Bose????
Can I just disconnect the rest of everything and run a fiber optic straight to the amp from the stereo?
In theory. But on each component disconnected, you must make a looping fiber optic connection on each component not being used.

I got s63 Amg I got red light out of amp but not satellite radio or voice command. Which one comes up first ?
Question
Does the CD CHANGER still need power when you bypass it ??
If you bypass the CD CHANGER does it still have to have the power supply connected ?
No
Will this also fix the cd changer or no?
hello I have a question if I buy a new CD changer is it plug and play or I have to get it programed????
I did as suggested in the video. Had a quick ? When looking for the lights to come on each unit I notice the light on wire itself comes on first then the light on unit comes on after. My main issue is stereos sound cones on and odf.
Did you ever figure out what the problem was.. mine comes in and out
İ bought a after market radio but it has no fiber optic connection . What must i do
What if your radio has a solid red light when you turn it on. it doesn't blink
I have Mercedes 2006 c230 I want to buy head unit aftermarket but has optic fiber amplifier what I need for my speakers
I have w203 and regular mercedes cd player in it. Bose only speakers and amplifire. Also have mobile Nokia connection. I buy command 2.0 for w203 and clk, orginal parts. But when i connect command 2.0 i have no sound but unit have power. Please help me.
What’s the location of your shop??
my audio sound are on and off ,is the radio or the fiber optic problem?
why is that clicking sound coming from amp is it because of bad power relay? or some other issue how much it would cost to fix ?
i also an having the same problem. red dot comes on but makes clicking noise from amp..

Hey men I have no light at the back of the radio and no light at the back of the Amp
I also have a lot of questions how can I call you
I have the same audio problem- what is the "Defective Teliat" that you mentioned under the passenger seat.
It's what hooked up a, usually a Nokia cell phone to the head unit.
0:46 clicking sounds helps determing a problem
What is the problem when I hear these clicks and most importantly, how to fix it? Who knows about this?
Im trying to figure out my buddy's.. the only sound i get is a thumping sound out all the speakers.. ive changed the amp, ive changed head units and still same thing

did you ever find a fix to this ?
Me pueden ayudar dandome el codigo de la radio de ml320 2002
On my 2001 s500 the problem a have and it doesn't happen often but I can be listening to the radio and out of no where I loose sound then I have to turn the car off let it sit for a while and the sound will be back. Any idea what that can be?
where can I get the fiber optic cable do I buy it or car has it somewhere
My teleaid wire is blinking but not the box .
In my 2002 ml 500 the fiber optic blinks red but the stereo doesn't? What can I do to fix it?
That head unit is toast. We'll, the chip is. If you got a model number, you can order a new chipboard for around $100 maybe cheaper.
NO FIBER OPTIC SIGNAL GOING TO TELEAID, BUT ITS GOING TO AMP? thanks for any help that you can provide
Then bypass the TeliAid with a looping fiber optic plug. It basically sends its own signal back to itself.
Any one know or can advise me on how to watch a youtube or read directions showing how to removal the 6cd player frame the rear luggage compartment on the MB SL550 2008
My issue was none of the above: it was just a poor connection at the very end of the fiber optic cable that goes into the radio.
Would be a good video, but he does not reply to any questions. I have a 2012 SL63 with the Harmon Kardon system. Just 6 months ago my sound started going out. After my car sits for 24hr the sound usually comes back. Took it to the dealership and they said the amp was over heating, but that was a lie.

Took fiber optic cable out of radio and turned on radio. Red light comes on and stays on. No blinking. Have you ever come across this problem?
Hi there! I'm currently experiencing the same problem with my 2003 mercedes ml350. I was wondering if you ever found a solution to your problem? I'm trying to avoid spending hundreds on a whole new radio. Thanks!
Don’t buy a loop The ends don’t fit Ordered a coupler, wish me luck..
🎉😅❤
Hey friend, I’ve been having the no sound problem on my Mercedes w203 that has the Bose amplifier. Right off the bat my amp makes a clicking noise. Does that mean that the amplifier need to be replaced? Or should I go ahead and check the fiber optics? Thank you!!!
