Hello everyone My C250 2012 was having a low battery, i was jumping it and everything was fine, i got a vacation for a while and came back to turn it on but it won't even with jumping, so i changed the battery with a new one but still it's not cranking, now those symbols are on the dash and stereo. Anyone faced this issue before or how can i start my car at least to take to a garage?

I'm not clicking a link I'm not familiar with from a member that just joined. Post pics.
Oh sure you have the right to, and am really sorry i thought that the photos were uploaded, the link is for a video of me trying to start the car, because it's more than 20mb.

Interesting as you seem to have more than one error here. Curious, has this car been sitting out in the weather? Has water gotten into the cabin or trunk?

I did a little searching around and all these faults may come from water getting inside the car and contacting wires/connectors/units.
The front drain ducts are known to get plugged and allow water to back up into the car. The fasteners around the trunk trim get old and brittle/fall apart and allow water in.
You will have to peel back the carpet in the drivers/passenger side floor to check. Go in the trunk and lift up the floor and look under the spare tire for water pooling under it. Even I had a leaky trunk I had to fix.

This is where i would start.
Many thanks for the reply, the car was parked inside the building and there's no signs for water 😕

Glad it's fixed, but I don't know how you cloned fried electronics. Maybe the non-volatile memory was intact, or maybe they just removed and transferred the PROM to the "new" ECU.
How were you jump starting the car, were you connecting to the jump points in the engine bay? Where you using a jumper pack or using jumper cables hooked to another car? I hardly every jump start cars so thankfully my jumper cables and my jumper pack has clear instructions on them on which order to connect them or I'd probably get it wrong trying to remember.
