Mercedes AMG GT Hybrid Fog Sensor Issue

My 2023 Mercedes AMG GT hybrid engine is acting up Dashboard warning light is on, and I'm getting an error about the fog sensor The air conditioning won't turn on, my spray nozzles are frozen, and the mirror heating is dead I have 128271 km on the clock Could this be related to the humidity sensor Has anyone encountered this electrical issue

Summary of the thread

A 2023 Mercedes AMG GT hybrid experienced issues with the fog sensor, leading to a dashboard warning light, non-functional air conditioning, frozen spray nozzles, and inactive mirror heating. The problem was suspected to be related to a defective cable or plug connection affecting the fog sensor, which is integral to the climate control system. It was advised to seek professional diagnostic assistance rather than attempting self-repair, and the issue was resolved by cleaning a corroded connector at a workshop for a reasonable cost.

The symptoms you describe suggest a potential issue with the fog sensor or its wiring A defective cable or plug connection is a plausible cause, considering the interconnected systems The fog sensor provides input to the climate control system, affecting air conditioning, spray nozzle operation, and mirror heating Has the vehicle had any recent repairs or maintenance that might have disturbed the wiring harness

No recent work done, which is frustrating Where is this fog sensor located Could I check myself for a loose connection or corrosion, or would I cause more trouble

Given your description and the potential for complications, self-diagnosis might not be best The fog sensor's location can vary, and improper handling could worsen the issue Considering the impact on visibility and climate control, I recommend a diagnostic check at a qualified workshop A repair cost of 95€ seems reasonable for a faulty connection

Thanks, I appreciate the advice I took it to a shop, and you were right It was a corroded connector on the sensor They cleaned it, and everything works again Worth the 95€ to avoid messing something up myself
