Code Help

Took my car to Auto Zone today and decided to run a diagnostic even though my CEL wasnt on. Upon doing so, I got codes:

P0150 O2 Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Bank 2 Sensor 1, open circuit before cat)

P0161 O2 Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction (Bank 2 Sensor 2)

P1747 Electronic Gear Selector Module: Defective Interaction of CAN with control unit A1 (instrument cluster)

Anyone know what I need to do to get these fixed?

The Electronic Gear Selector Module is located in the gear selector housing, I replaced mine a little while ago and posted a DIY thread on how to do it. I can tell you it isn't super difficult but it definitely isn't fun.

Here is a link to the thread:

I take it you are not having any problems with the car.

Leave it 2 weeks then scan again. If same fault shows then fix.

I think you should scan with the Mercedes Star diagnostics to be certain. Some of those codes could be old ones that have been saved from before, but never cleared. I believe the Star will see both old and new. The old ones can be cleared, you can then verify if they show up again right away.
