my mechanic could not find the electrical issue so that’s why I had it towed to the dealership.
My mechanic said he could fix it but he can not get the parts.
I might be able to take it to an upholsterer to fix the top??
Thanks again for the help.
I searched eBay but no parts available for sale.....😔
No reason to panic.
The pump Mercedes # 170 800 08 48, and illumination module Mercedes part# 193 545 00 04 are always for sale on eBay. Mercedes part numbers starting with the number 193 were made for the Crossfire but lack the Chrysler part number on them they only show the Mercedes part number.

The back window can be fixed and the method is shown on this forum. Many people decide to replace the top because the window often leaks again.
The pump and illumination modules are Mercedes parts, and there are lots around.
Come to this forum instead of wasting you time at the dealers and get a good diagnosis for free.
