Hello kayriecken,

You did not specify whether you have the old classic Becker or the new retro. I'm pretty sure that the knobs were "spring loaded" on my old '60's Becker (actually in a 1971 Mercedes 280S - later replaced with a Blaupunkt). On mine, you just pulled out lightly on the knob and it switched function to balance. One side, the volume controlled left to right balance, and the other side, tuning, controlled front to rear balance (fader). Try it and see if it works.

Hope this helps.

Radio wiring code for 1987 mercedes benz 300. With aftermarket radio the windows switch ligths blinks and have no instrument ligths.

Hi, the aftermarket stereo does not use the illumination wire. You must tape that wire off (purple/gray). That wire is either connected to the wrong place or is touching chassis ground and causing your instrument lights to dim.
Connect the stereo's red wire to the car's black/yellow wire; and connect the stereo's yellow wire to the car's red/white wire.

Need master code for radio in a 2000 ml320

Hi,

Regretfully due to reasons of theft or piracy we do not pass the radio codes here at FixYa. If you contact your local Mercedes-Benz dealer they will give you the 5 digit code. (You must have your registration and know the complete serial number of the radio)
