Re: [MBZ] Continental Head Unit -- OT Speaking of power cycling

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

The PO moved to Idaho or someplace so he's not around.  I believe 
someone is buried out on the island, I found a big conch shell out 
there, which had to have been put there, and the Gullah folks used to do 
that in place of a headstone which they could not afford. So there could 
be that.  There were also some fairly pitched battles that occurred 
right here on my property and along the way during the Second 
Waaaw of Independence, so there is the possibility of casualties 
proximate to the casa.  I painted all the porch ceilings "haint blue" 
which the local root doctors say will keep the haints away, there are a 
number of houses around the island that are painted blue just for that 
reason.


Interestingly enough I found out this story that is kinda long to tell, 
but it involved some interesting coincidences involving a guy who built 
a house over an old graveyard, and some bones he dug up, and my cycling 
group... it was all very strange.

So I put this fan in our new bedroom that has a wireless RF remote.  The
last few days the light is going on randomly, mostly during the day,
though it did it once during the night a few weeks ago and it was quite
startling.  Today the fan went on randomly. I guess it is picking up
some stray RF signals from something, but there isn't much within a few
hundred yards of the house, so that kinda weirds me out.  The remote
works fine when I use it, but maybe it is having some kind of fits.  Or
the haints has taken up residence...

Yesterday it exhibited a new failure mode: it power cycled once while I was

Max,

Any issues with support for it?  This makes me a little uneasy about it now, 
but no one on BenzWorld has reported any problems, and there are probably 8-10 
people who have purchased this model for their cars.
