Replacement of Window Switch

Model: Mercedes Classe M W163 - Years 1997-2005
Part: Push button

This guide shows how to change the window switch in your car. It is a very simple operation that does not require the help of a mechanic. You need to take a medium-sized flathead screwdriver and gently pry at the corners of the old switch panel. To avoid damaging the plastic interior of the car, it is good practice to place a cloth where you pry, or wrap the tip of the screwdriver with it. Be very careful with the force applied, as the plastic surrounding the buttons is somewhat delicate. At some point, the button will tend to come off on its own. Once it is removed from its housing, disconnect the wire connector by simply pulling it towards you.
