Removing the middle seats from a R350 Mercedes Benz 4matic can vary depending on the model year and specific configuration of your vehicle. Here are some general steps on how to remove the middle seats from an R350 Mercedes Benz 4matic:
Begin by locating the seat release lever or button. This will typically be located on the bottom of the seat, near the floor.
Press the seat release lever or button and then pull the seat forward. This will release the seat from its locked position.
Once the seat is released, you will need to remove the seat belt from the seat. This is typically done by pressing a button or lever on the seat belt retractor and then pulling the seat belt out of the seat.
After the seat belt is removed, you can lift the seat out of the vehicle.
To remove the back seat, you will need to locate the release lever or button on the seat back. This will typically be located near the top of the seat back, on the side that faces the rear of the vehicle.
Press the release lever or button and then pull the seat back forward. This will release the seat back from its locked position.
Once the seat back is released, you can lift it out of the vehicle.
Keep in mind that the specific steps may vary depending on the model year and configuration of your R350 Mercedes Benz 4matic. It is recommended to consult the owner's manual for your specific vehicle for more detailed instructions, or contact a professional technician for assistance.
run the fault codes
could be a broken timing belt or chain
could have blown the main power fuse next to the battery ( around 80 amps ) and that would have switched everything off
Not an easy task. You likely have one of 2 problems. If center seat belt is in the seat that is down, it may be locked. If so, you need to remove the seat back cover then the seat belt retractor. You can then position the seat belt retractor upright (how it sits when the seat is up) and pull the seat belt out making slack to raise the seat. This only happens if the either the stop on the seat belt is broken or the seat belt guide on the seat back is broken. If that's not the problem, you likely have a release cable that has come loose under the seat. If you look at the half that works, you can determine what you need to move on the locked seat and try to get to it with a long tin screwdriver or similar implement.
It is most likely (99% probability) jammed from dirt and debris over time. you must disassemble and clean the latching mechanism. It is not broken, only jammed.
it could very well be just the seat belt latch but you really need to see what codes are being set because there could be other issues as well. You need to get the SRS system scanned. I do not know if the seat will need to be removed. If the latch is attached to the seat itself and it most likely is I'd say yes the seat will have to come out. Very easy to do. Move seat in full back position to get front bolts out and full forward position to get rear bolts out and then carefully disconnect all electrical connectors going to the seat.
on the 99 the front seats are identical. assuming there was little change in 2000 you unbolt both seats and move the passenger seat over to the driver side. while it is out, you set the sliders manually to be in the middle position and the passenger seat will be stuck there. If you can get light up inside there you will see a cable connector has released at one end meaning it will not release the dog to permit sliding so you may have to pull it manually with a vise grip in order to move the seat forward on the sliders to get at the bolt heads in the rear. unplug the battery before you unplug the seats.
have a look below the instrument panel near the door arch at front passenger side foot well, there is a black handle pull it then go in front of the car and have a look in side bottom part of Mercedes star in front grill anothe little liver there put your hand in there and pull it out. is this information helped you?
make sure it isnt twisted untwist as neccessary, pull it out and try and let it retract, if this works and it unjams try washing the seat belt with a mild soap and water solution. if this doesnt help and it remains stuck seatbelt may have to be replaced.
so after completely tearing the seat apart I found 2 wires going up to the seat belt mechanism from under the seat, these wires got caught in the seat mechanism underneath and were shredded. There must be a small solenoid inside the seat belt mechanism because I could hear it click after I repaired the wires(this circuit is live even with the ignition off) Im not sure how it all works but this solved my problem.
