What This Sensor Helps Address

• Automatic wipers that do not respond to rain
• Intermittent wiper behavior that is inconsistent
• Rain-sensing system faults tied to the windshield sensor circuit
• Loss of factory automatic wipe function on select Mercedes-Benz models
• Electrical connection issues at the sensor interface

Installation Notes and Quality Assurance

Verify connector shape, terminal style, and vehicle application before installation. This rain sensor uses a female rectangular connector with three male blade terminals, so matching the original sensor interface is important for proper fitment on Mercedes-Benz G550, G55 AMG, G500, and other listed models. Standard Ignition replacement parts are built for direct-fit service applications.
