Product Title
Mercedes-Benz W203 W211 W219 Steering Shaft And Column Adjustment Motor 404.475 - Used Original Parts
Diagnosis and Common Symptoms
As a Senior Technician at M.S. Motor, I frequently diagnose steering geometry and column faults across premium German platforms. On the Mercedes-Benz W203, W211, and W219 architectures, the steering column adjustment motor (404.475) is a highly active component that suffers from thermal fatigue and internal wear over time. The primary failure manifests as a complete loss of telescopic or tilt actuation. Drivers usually first notice that the Easy Entry/Exit convenience feature fails to move the wheel out of the way when the ignition is turned off.
When scanning the Steering Column Module (MRM) or the driver-side SAM, you will commonly retrieve fault codes such as 9345 or 9346, which indicate the adjustment mechanism is blocked, or the motor control circuit is experiencing an open or short circuit. These failures are typically caused by internal carbon brush degradation or mechanical binding in the column drive cables, which forces the motor to draw excessive amperage until the module cuts power to prevent an electrical fire.
Introduction
When repairing the intricate steering column dynamics of your W203, W211, or W219 chassis, relying on Genuine parts is absolute necessary to maintain factory tolerances. This Genuine used steering column adjustment motor has been rigorously bench-tested to ensure flawless operation and proper voltage draw under load. By choosing a verified pre-owned component, you restore exact factory precision to your steering ergonomics without the steep dealership markup. Every unit is physically inspected for drive gear integrity and complete electrical continuity before it reaches your bay.
Product Details

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What symptoms indicate failure? A: The most common signs include the steering wheel failing to move during the automated easy entry/exit function, completely unresponsive manual adjustment switches on the steering column, or audible clicking and grinding noises when actuation is attempted.
Q: Does this require coding? A: No. The adjustment motor itself is a plug-and-play electromechanical component and does not require module programming. However, after installation, you must normalize the end stops by running the steering column to its maximum limits in all directions so the control module can learn the new position parameters.
Q: Is this original? A: Yes, this is a Genuine Mercedes-Benz component carefully extracted from a donor vehicle. It is not an aftermarket replica, ensuring exact fitment, factory gear meshing, and proper electrical resistance.
