Does  your alternator light come on when you turn the key on?  I don't 
know  if Mercedeses are wired this way, but on many cars, if the 
alternator  light is burned out or there's another break in its circuit, 
the  alternator field will NOT energize.



David is correct,  power for excitation comes through and is limited  by the 
alternator light filament.
