The windshield on my 290da has a vent in the center. It is opened and closed by an electric actuator operated by a switch on the dash. It does not work. I bypassed the switch and can get the actuator to operate so I figure the switch is bad. I bought a new switch and it still doesn't work...darn I was hoping to cross this off my list ! Has anybody dealt with these switches ? I can tell the previous owner has messed around trying to fix this and I wonder if the switch is wired right. It has 8 lugs on the back and is on-off-on . I guess it reverses polarity to move the actuator out or in. I put the wires back on just like the old switch...I am pretty much stumped at this point. Here are pics of the switch.
