Mercedes X Klasse Fuel Flap Problems

My 2017 Mercedes X Klasse diesel has a fuel flap issue The release isn't working I have an error in the system memory and the fuel filler flap won't lock or unlock Some other functions are acting up too Could the linkage be broken

Intermittent electrical issues can be vexing Have you checked if the release button itself works Also, inspect the cable release mechanism if your car has one Look for mechanical issues or disconnections Check the fuses and relays for the fuel door release circuit This might show the cause

Thanks for the reply Do you mean the button inside the car or on the fuel filler And where is this cable release mechanism I'm trying to avoid a big bill if it's simple

Yes, I mean the internal switch inside the car The cable release mechanism depends on your X Klasse model If it has one, it's near the fuel filler, maybe behind a panel in the trunk Given your expertise, I advise a qualified technician Ignoring electrical issues can cause more problems

Okay, thanks I took it to a workshop It was a defective fuel filler flap actuator They replaced it It cost 210€, but it's fixed Thanks for the help
