Auto On/Off Driving Lights and/or Rain/Light Sensor not Functioning Properly
If you receive customer reports in the above model vehicles that the auto on/off and/or rain/light sensor is not functioning properly, the cause may be one
of the following:
^
The windshield is not a genuine Mercedes-Benz part
^
The rain/light sensor is not the correct part
^

Perform the following procedure to remedy the issue:
1.
Verify that the windshield is indeed a genuine Mercedes-Benz part (the genuine parts have the Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star on them).
