Re: [MBZ] Becker radio codes

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

The guy at the parts counter is probably looking up the VMI on his computer by 
searching the radio serial number field, I presume. Never asked if it’s 
searchable by the different fields in the document - I’ll ask next time I’m 
over there. It may also be searchable by the build sheet in the EPC, possibly.  
Still easiest way to get it is with the last 8 of the VIN.

Re: [MBZ] Becker radio codes

I must have a good dealer then. I copy the serial number for the radio (or
maybe show the radio) and the guy at the parts counter gives me the code. I
must look honest.

Re: [MBZ] Becker radio codes

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

Uh, yes it does. The code is in the VMI which is referenced by the VIN. You 
give the dealer the VIN, they look up the VMI, which has the factory supplied 
radio code in it.

That goes back well into the 1980s.

I’ve pasted a screen shot below of the VMI for my former 1990 350SDL’s VMI with 
the radio code and serial number in it. As my posts with attachments typically 
get stripped, it probably won’t show up, but I”m more than willing to forward 
it to anyone who questions this.

The radio code up to 199x has nothing to do with the VIN.

These days, just about everything you buy from a knackers (not a u-pull) 
has the VIN on the invoice. (and if you 'rebuild' a salvage car, you

[MBZ] Becker radio and Hirschmann antenna query

[glenn brown]

Is there anyone on the list who has experienced the problem I'm having with the 
Becker Grand Prix radio and Hirschmann antenna in my '84 300D . . . explanation 
follows: While my car was at the fabricators and paint shop for some rust 
elimination, I had the antenna disassembled and just hangin' in the trunk.  I 
got a buzzing sound (Note: It's a buzz, buzz, buzz sound and seems to repeat 
22X and then there's a slight pause and it starts another 22X buzz, buzz, buzz 
sequence) from the radio on reassembling everything.  Upon trying to track down 
what was causing the buzz, I haven't been able to find any connection or wire 
responsible and I even resoldered the small PCB within the Hirschmann 
retractable antenna casing.  The extension/retraction function of the antenna 
stopped working (Note: This occurred prior to resoldering the PCB).  I had the 
bloody thing working without the buzz for a couple days as it just seemed to go 
together without the buzz, but I disassembled the Hirschmann antenna case again 
today to see if I could find out why the extension/retraction function stopped 
working.  I thought possibly this might have been caused by turning the 
ignition switch on/off so many times when I was trying to figure out the 
buzzing that the antenna had possibly gotten in a reverse sequence so I 
retracted the antenna via hand rotating the little drive wheel within the 
housing but this hasn't helped cure the extension/retraction function of the 
antenna either and now the bloody buzz is back again and I can't seem to get 
rid of it.  Does any of this sound familiar to anyone?  TIA.

This has the circuit board and the belt?  Or just the cam
and switches?  The belt-driven one has electronics, and if
they go south it could cause who knows what kind of crud.
I tried to fix one once, it was highly unsuccessful.

CD Changers, as well as I-Pod audio input modifications for most radios.
While they specialize in out-of-warranty older tube/transistor classics
with all the knobs, trimplates, dial-scales and all... They also sell

 Disassemble sufficiently to gain access to the 12V grain-of-wheat
 incandescent bulbs, and solder in new ones.  Not pretty, I'm sure,
 but probably quite do-able.

I don't know, I've never done it on that vintage.  Grab screwdriver,

Update on the SONY CD player and the IPOD

My wife took me to the mall last night and purchased a 30GB IPOD for me for
my birthday.  Downloaded a cd and a bunch of Audible.com audiobooks to it
this afternoon, cobbled together a double male cable to plug into the aux
input on the cd player and lo and behold, I was able to play the IPOD
directly through the cd player and the car stereo speakers.

You can get a little FM transmitter too for the pod that will work sorta 
OK on any radio that doesn't have an input.  $30 at El Mercado de Wal.  
You can buy the male-male cable too for a dollar or two.


I bought a 16MB player yesterday for $6 at the surplus electronics shop, 
I am going to hack it to do some other things with it.

 Two ways to skin that cat Angelo.  First would be to invest in an FM
 adapter so the iPod sends its music out through the radio. Might not
 work well in overly populated areas with excess radio stations.  There
 are six or so slots that it transmits, but could all be used in NY
 area.

 Other way is to find the adapter in the back of the radio for aux and
 use that.

When I recently replaced the radio in my 300TD, (the Becker was looonnng
gone), I went down to WalMart and got a pretty nice little Sony unit for
$89.95, AM/FM/CD.  I suppose the sound quality is not as good as the high
end models, but then again, I'm driving a 21 year old car that had a fair
amount of road noise BEFORE it got real old.  New stereo has an aux jack on
the front for connecting to the IPOD.  SWMBO is taking me to the mall this
afternoon to get me an IPOD for my birthday, so I'll check it out and let ya
know.  Guess I'll start doing the podcast thing

OBTW...turned over 290K this week, filled up the tank and got 26 MPG.  Life
is good.

Sony has one of those jukebox things, holds a couple hundred discs I
think, but you really ought to just burn them to a hard drive or iPod or
something, and use that with those new streaming transmitter/receiver
things that can send/recieve it here and there over a wired or wireless
network.  That jukebox thing might speed up the process a bit.

My wife's company had one of those that they used instead of muzak.  They
decided it was obsolete last week and tried to give it away to the

In that case buy a cheap 5 tray CD changer and plug it in.  I doubt if 
she could really tell the difference among various-priced options, 
unless you have some awesome speakers and amps.  The Sony thing that 
holds a couple hundred I think is like $300, not a bad price if you want 
all of them available without having to reload the thing.

Re: [MBZ] Becker Radio and IPOD?

which folks did you talk to at Becker?  and what kind of adapter did you
use?  I'm wanting to do a similar thing with my 92 300D.

Re: [MBZ] Becker Radio and IPOD?

[John M McIntosh]

What they do is provide an aux jack on the back that is wired into  
the input from the cassette player.
As mentioned  you could get a fm adaptor, but I'll point out some  
other choices


a) Some xm radio receivers have transmitters and provide aux-in so  
you can get xm radio and ipod input then transmit via FM to  the becker.


b) Replace the entire setup with something else, that provides xm  
radio, mp3 cd, full ipod integration to show song etc and control  
ipod from radio


Lastly I'll note some fm adaptors let you pick transmission  
frequencies across the spectrum, versus only providing only 6 presets  
or something.

Are those S-class cars using SLS with springs or springless systems like

The springless ones are charged to 2-3 times the pressure of the S123

Re: [MBZ] Becker Radio

[Steve MacSween]

Can you do engraving on a climate control servo? That would be good.

The comment was directed to King Okie Parts, dude, not you. Kleb and me go
way back. I knew him when he was only the Prince of Okie Parts.

Anyway, the suggestion that Mercedes should cover failures on 13-yr-old
radiators was way funnier.

 If it were not for the mistakes that I make, I'd have nothing to think about.

 Is it asking too much, for people to send direct messages to Kaleb when they
 want parts? This is like the tenth today.

 Hi, Kaleb. As per you ad-line about the best used MB parts anywhere, I need
 a Becker radio suitable for an 85 300TD. The one that I have flattens the
 battery, and only plays a subdued crackle and hiss.
 What have you and how much?
