Mercedes-Benz DRL connectors are mounted in the front bumper area, directly exposed to road spray, salt, and moisture ingress through the headlight housing seal. The 2-pin DRL connector carries switched power and ground for LED or halogen DRL modules. On W204 and W212 platforms, moisture tracking along the DRL wiring into the connector causes terminal oxidation, producing intermittent DRL faults that are logged by the SAM (Signal Acquisition Module) as lighting circuit errors. The connector is the most common cause of DRL faults before the DRL module itself fails.
Q: What fault codes indicate a failed DRL connector on Mercedes-Benz?
A: The SAM module logs lighting circuit faults for the affected DRL circuit. Use XENTRY/DAS or a compatible Mercedes-Benz scanner to read SAM fault codes. Intermittent codes that clear after wiggling the DRL harness confirm a connector fault.
Q: Are terminals included?
A: Yes, terminals are included with all variants.
