HELP!! ABS, EPC, Traction malfunction

Hi everyone I have a 2009 C63 W204 body, woke up this morning let the car warm up and half way down the block my EPC, ABS, and Traction light came on. Was wondering if anyone else has had this problem or knows a fix to it..

Thank you

Probably a steering angle sensor. If the car thinks you're constantly sliding it will disable all that stuff because it knows theres a fault.

Same thing happened to me this week.

Thanks going to have the car scanned later to see what it comes up as. Did you loose your power steering as well when this happened to you.

Hi nikko , did you find the issue? I been having the same issue, but now I can't get rid of those lights. This time is getting me crazy, this morning on my way to work I almost wreck the car because no ABS at all, also the steering wheels is hard.

Couple weeks ago I took the car to MB dealer after 2 days they stated that was the control module failure, and it will be $1860 labor included, but to me seems that is a simple sensor (speed ).

Please I need your help, I been trying to find more reserch in the forum but I can't find the right topic in this tiny phone.

Anyone please your help.

read this!!! If you got your car tested already by a MB dealer There is a big possibility that that is your problem.
