Auxillary battery malfunction
Hi guys,
I recently purchased a mercedes s500 (2010). Before purchaseing the car I got it tested (engine, transmission, gearbox, system etc). All was good but they recommended that I replace the auxillary battery. Since I was buying the car from mercedes showroom I asked them to replace the battery and they did it.
However one day When I started my car, I sat in the car with ac (air condition) turned on on for about 30 minz. Then when I started to drive I got the message "auxillary battery malfunction". I reached home turned off the engine, started the engine again after 30 minutes and the message was gone. I never got the message again. Can someone please explain this? Maybe because I was sitting in the car with AC on without driving?
Can someone also tell me what does the auxillary battery do and how much it costs?
Thanks

Out Of Control!!
Well as you can imagine nothing on am MB series S is simple------If your VIN has the B03 option you have a second battery located in the trunk to satisfy the B03 ECO start\stop function.
Sounds simple, but the process is very complicated electrically and electronically, therefore read your manual for a detailed description of stopping the engine via the brake and restarting the engine via the accelerator peddle.
I have no FI how much it costs!!

AUXILIARY BATTERY COST
I paid $70 for battery at dealer in PR, June 2015 for a 2010 S-550.
Car Discount Parts sell it for $46.95. My dealer will not install parts purchased elsewhere!
