ESP error

well first i was driving yesterday and my car phone rang. same time i had an error that said that my left turn bulb is out. hmm so stop the car error went away, lights work. next day went to work no problems. then going home error came back left turn bulb out. went to the dealer bought new bulb. still didnt work. went on the mbworld to see if any one had this problem. someone said to clean the terminals. did it and after 4 times of pulling it out it started working. great! then i See a new error ESP program not available. I said WTF! drove the car around the block and pushed the ESP on/off a few times then shut of the car and restarted error gone! I'm not sure what going on with the car, drives fine. the only thing that was installed on the car was a timeport PSE with a MIkbox. not sure if this had anything to do with it. anyone with the same problem?

i think you are correct. if you take the battery off the esp error will pop up. you might need to resynchronize windows as well.

forgot to add this:

but i think that since you did disconnect the battery you have to reset ESP steering angle sensor. This is done by turn the steering wheel all the way to left then all the way to right and then center. i think this is in the manual.
