How to fix a blank Central Display/Radio Display in 2012/2013/2014/2015 Mercedes Benz ML350

This video simply shows how to identify the fuse that powers all the electrical/electronics within your Mercedes Benz ml350. In this case, it basically talks about the central display. You can use the technique in the video to identify and fix other electronics/electrical issues.
This is for a 2013, but it is likely going to be the same with other similar years.

    You are amazing Obi! Your tutorials are simple, easy to understand and follow. Glad you are not just another loud and obnoxious KZread “expert” wannabe. I’ve subscribed, liked, and shared the video. One question: my wife’s 2014 ML does not have any heat. It blows cold when the heater is engaged. I suspect that the heater/AC (climate control) is controlled through the command system, which is not powering on (and that is what brought me to your channel). Thanks for your help ahead!

    Thanks for the compliment. In regards to your question, I haven't experienced that. But if I do, yeah I will experiment with the climate control fuse and see what happens.

    Hello, thank you for this video. My ML350 display Kees resetting. None of the buttons like phone, NAV are working. The display doesn’t show the rear camera view when the car is in reverse mode. Could this be related to a shifted fuse?

    I can't really tell unless I troubleshoot. But you can use the fuse diagram to try and locate the fuse for the display and see the fuse condition. Otherwise, I will recommend taking it to a qualified technician to check it out.

    I have a 2013 ML350 4Matic…and same exact issue. I unplugged fuse 21, no cut in the wire/coil so I put it back and nothing worked. My display was still blank. I went to the fuse box under the seat and looked for F100 unplugged it again no cut in the coil so I put it back and also under the seat I unplugged F147, no cut on the coil either of the fuse so I put it back and immediately the display came back. So why did I check F100 and F147…both fuse are for the Radio system. So don’t only check the fuse for “central display,” also check for “Radio system” Hope this helps.

    That sounds like a mechanical issue to me. May need to bring out the system to fix the dail by possibly tightening it or replacing it completely.

    If the power is coming on at all, then it's not a fuse issue. There is something else going on that needs to be diagnosed.

    Hi. I’m having this problem now at the moment. Even though I have a black screen the radio still works. Did your radio still work ? For a few weeks the screen, half of it had gone yellow now completely blacked out. Any ideas without having to replace? The Bluetooth doesn’t seem to be connecting to my phone either. Not sure it is all linked ? Thanks
