Which battery did you replace?

Is it your car, or do you work at a shop and it's a customer's car?

Where are you located?

Have you thought of using spell check? It'll fix all the errors in your first post and make it more understandable.

Hmmmm, try disconnecting the battery for about 15 minutes. During that time, put a voltmeter to check the actual voltage of the battery. Try disconnecting the ECM, as well, to "reset" it.

I would also check the wiring under the hood. Any field mice where you live?

No power at the OBD port makes me think there is a blown fuse somewhere. Have you checked all locations? Google or search YouTube for more info.

There are three locations:

1. Fuse box on the driver's side of the dashboard

2. Fuse box in the engine compartment on the left-hand side of the vehicle, when viewed in the direction of travel

3. Fuse box in the trunk on the right-hand side of the vehicle, when viewed in the direction of travel

The fuse allocation chart is located in the vehicle tool kit in the stowage compartment under the trunk floor.

There are also fuses in the pre-fuse block. In the past few weeks I’ve seen a couple of problems with blown fuses in there. Symptoms are “strange and wonderful” failures with all the other fuses checking good.

Just guessing, but maybe.

It’s the part underneath the red sliding cover for a jump start. It’s also got a component called the “quiescent current relay” whose job it is to begin to remove “consumers” from the battery load when the car is not started for an extended period, like parked at an airport. That’s the thing that’s supposed to “wake the system up” when you open the door after the car has been parked.

These two links should cover just about everything:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9oq31JEF63U (YouTube)

https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...ad-module.html (this forum)

The YouTube video says to check the terminals on the pre-fuse bloc. This is okay but you can only get to the top 4 without removing it. The top plug that he removes is the pyro fuse connector. The pyro fuse is what disconnects the car from the battery in an accident. If that plug DOESN’T go back in, you will need to get a replacement.

The other link is a successful repair of a blown fuse in the prefuse bloc.
