 Hi, This may seem like repeating work already done but check all the fuses 
gain. I have a 1990 500SL which had symtoms not unlike yours (But it did run) 
ll sorts of seemingly unconnnected failures ,lots of advice on here, but 
ventually traced to one fuse in the main fuse box in the engine compartment 
aving mechanicly failed (Not burned out). On mine the hood wouldnt work nor the 
ndicators or the door windows unless the drivers door was open plus a few more 
eemingly separate systems. 
 Good luck. 
 Chris.

 Hi Jan (the Flying Dutchman),
 
 
 Did you get my email a couple of weeks ago.  I met the president of the 
etherlands MB Club in Berlin, and mentioned your name - he knew you.   I gave 
im a couple of Mercedes Benz stickers - one for you and one for him.  Have you 
een him as yet?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Re the question below, I agree that the fuses could have blown, and, if the 
indow operator fuses have blown, the roof will not go down. This can also 
nhibit the starting of the car depending on what other fuses have blown (or 
een dislodged).  On the circuit drawing, is there a loop between the car seat 
elt circuit and the ignition circuit  that needs to be made prior to ignition 
ower being supplied to the relay?

 I suppose you did not disconnect the battery while you take out the seat?
 
 
 If so you properly has burned out a few fuses, check them.
