btw friends I figured this out and it was quite simple .... if anyone ever has this problem drop me a line ... it has to do with the siren and the car protecting itself from being stolen

first I just put a 15amp fuse where the 7.5 fuse went car started right up like if nothing happened, drove it to the MERC shop not the Dealer they hooked up the computer to it and reset all error codes and car was back to normal.
basically what they told me was that the car was just protecting itself from being stolen by blowing the F78 fuse

Fuse?
Thanks for the info.. If you put a higher amp fuse in aren't you looking for trouble? What made the fuse go in the first place. Sorry I am a bit slow. I am very glad that it is a easy fix and didn.t cost $1,000 or $ 2,000 dollars like these car tend to do. Thanks again
