Can anyone shed any light on this for me as it seems a bit odd !part number is 1708201726. I have also been told that no point trying to get a second hand part as cannot be reprogrammed. Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

The part you get will be a Merc part, the Chrysler part is that same Merc part in a relabeled plastic bag. The part will still have the Merc part number on it as do all the SKREEM units in these cars.
You should explain your symptoms and with luck it is something cheaper wrong with the car.
Attached is the part, it has a slightly different part number, but it is the same part but a later issue.
