CPS ~ Fuse 52 ~ replace with 20 amp.
Check fuel pressure at front fuel rail Schrader valve, s/b > 3.8 bar or 55 psi while cranking.

Yes. If you get no crank it is usually a corroded or blown fuse 52. Benz has a bulletin out to uprate fuse from 15 to 20 amp.
31, 52 & 57 are the start enable fuses.
CPS is down the back of the engine on the drivers side US.
