They all stop at once? I'd have a look at a wiring diagram and see what you can see; is there a live that feeds all the "problem" items? Or a relay that feeds them all but is separate to whatever powers things that work.

To be honest though, sounds like you've found a solution, make a tidy job of it and forget it, unless things keep giving up - then check your alternator isn't overcharging.

Have u checked the fuseable links, a known problem area on the 200. They are wraped up in the main harnes near the battery.

If this car is fitted with MFU then worth a check this one too.
