Expert Answers about Mercedes-Benz


  • Braking Systems for Flat Towing and Trailer Towing Options
  • The Curt Echo # C51180 is a wireless brake controller for trailers, not flat towing. The Echo will activate the electric brakes on a towed trailer but for activating the brakes on a flat towed Jeep behind your Winnebago View you need a supplemental braking system such as the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System, # BLU37TR. You can use one or the other depending on what you are towing.

  • Is the Adco RV Windshield Cover for Class C Motorhome A Blackout Cover
  • The Adco RV Windshield Cover for Class C Motorhome part # 290-2423 is not advertised as a blackout cover as you described which I assume means it does not let any light through. That said, I took a look at some of the reviews and there was no mention of letting light inside or that the amount was an issue. I don't have any hard data on light exposure with that being said.

  • Is There a Formula for Determining Air Pressure in Trailer
  • There is no special formula for tire pressure in regards to the load of your trailer as you normally want to inflate the tire to the maximum cold psi for the best performance. However, if you are not getting that, and your trailer is bouncing then you can try reducing the air pressure on a 5.30R12 tires like the Taskmaster # TT53012C which like your tire, has a max of 80 psi. The maximum capacity of these load range C tires is 1,050 lbs each so if you have the same or similar tire you...

  • Why Can't Class III Hitch Installed on 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK 350 Use Weight Distibution
  • When a hitch isn't rated for weight distribution, it's typically because the vehicle manufacturer has stated that weight distribution shouldn't be used on that particular vehicle. This is commonly seen on unibody-type vehicle where the portion of the vehicle where the hitch attaches might not be strong enough to withstand the forces exerted on the vehicle by a weight distribution system. This being said, you can still use a sway control system like the Curt # 17200 friction sway control....

  • Capacity of Taillight Wiring Harness for 2010 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
  • The Tekonsha # 118269 T-One trailer taillight wiring harness has a Stop/turn lights capacity of 4.2 amps per circuit and 7.5 amps per Taillight (running light) circuit, however the # C56332 isn't compatible with a 2010 Mercedes-Benz ML350. For that vehicle, you'd want to use # 119250KIT which has the identical capacity. I've linked to a video showing a typical installation on a similar vehicle.

  • Where Should Titan Tire Chains go on 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE 350
  • Appreciate the purchase for your 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 of the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains # TC2323. We do always recommend following what the owner's manual says, so the # TC2323 should only go on the rear tires of your Mercedes.

  • What Does the Curt Hitch Look Like on a 2000 Mercedes-Benz E320 Wagon
  • It doesn't look like we have any install photos of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11830 on a 2000 Mercedes-Benz E320 Wagon at this time unfortunately. That said, as the hitch has a hidden cross tube, all you're going to see under the bumper is the receiver tube which is really the best you can get as far as appearance goes without being fully hidden (not offered).

  • Can Brake Controller Be Wired to Dodge Sprinter RV without Green Plug Under Seat or Dash
  • We've used the brake controller install kit part # ETBC7 on a similar Sprinter as your 2010 Dodge model. I attached a link to the video that shows the process down below. The biggest hurdle to get over when installing this kit on a vehicle is tracking down the stoplight circuit on the brake pedal wiring. That's covered in the video though. Aside from that it's just basic wiring.

  • Compact Cars with Automatic Transmissions that Can Be Flat Towed
  • It is very common for automatic transmission vehicles to need to be started and ran for a couple minutes every couple of hours or at every fuel stop. This is because the engine lubricates while running, so every couple hours of towing the engine will need to be lubricated again by running. Typically, an RV will need to be refueled every 5 to 6 hours, so the towed vehicle can be started whenever the RV needs fuel. In my research, I found several compact, automatic cars that can be flat...

  • What Is The Extra 2 Prong Wire Pigtail For Behind The Tail Light of the Rola Cargo Carrier?
  • Yes, the 2 wires that you found behind the tail light of the Pod for Rola Enclosed Cargo Carriers # 10188 is for a license plate light if required. I would recommend using the Mini LED Trailer License Plate Light # OPT77FR so that you can run the wiring inside the Rola Carrier as the Rola specific light is no longer available.

  • Using a Track System to Fabricate an Upper Bed in a Mercedes Sprinter Van
  • Since what you are doing is a custom modification, there is not really a clear "should have" to go by. That being said, I can provide some thoughts and insights to help you make a decision. Personally I would go with the CargoSmart Horizontal or Vertical X-Track # 3486500 and the CargoSmart Rotating Board Holder for E-Track and X-Track Systems # 3481740. This will allow you to use less space than installing an entire track along your Sprinter. You would install these on each side across...

  • Adding 5-Way With 25 Feet of Wire to Back of Trailer For Lights on Cargo Carrier
  • So I think we have a solution here for you, but there isn't a vehicle-end 5-way that has 25 feet of wire, so you'll need to splice in additional wire. As for using the blue wire, that is the reverse light wire on the 5-way, so you would need that since you want to utilize a reverse light. Here is what you would need: - Hopkins Wiring Harness with 5-Pole Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End - 5' Long # HM37908 - Primary Wire - 16-Gauge - White - per Foot # DW02359-1 - Deka Heat Shrink...

  • Does The Tekonsha Powered Tail Light Converter # 119147KIT Require Splicing On 2019 Mercedes GLC300?
  • I see you found the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 which does require you to splice into the tail light wiring on your 2019 Mercedes-Benx GLC300. If you wanted a harness which does not require splicing that would be the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT. It has the sensors which detect power going through the wiring rather than pulling power from the wiring.
