Possible bad SAM?
Has anyone experienced this with their 2006 C230 v6?
Tried to start my C230 today and experienced flickering dash and cabin lights (it will not crank). The radio turned on and off, the display listed +185F for the temp then lost all power except to the hazards. I waited a few minutes then tried again. It acted as if the battery was low then all the lights would get bright like normal. I turned the headlights on manually, they did not come on but the dash indicated they were on and the alarm telling me to turn them off (key was not in ignition) sounded. When I turned of the lights the alarm continued for a few seconds before everything when dark. Then the center display came back on but was very faint before everything went dead (except the hazards). Did the front SAM just die?
