CL 55 AMG
Hello and HELP!... CL55 AMG 2005

Hello all,
I just bought a "pig in a poke AMG "that was not running (good deal???) and after putting in a new battery and replacing the 2 pre-fuse boxes all of the electronics came back on yet the car would not start . I started checking fuses and noticed in the passenger side box under the hood, there are five plugs in the fuse compartment that are not attached to anything. I called the local dealer parts guy and and got nowhere.. he suggested I bring it in

This is my 20th benz.. Just sold my 140 coupe after 15 years.

Can anyone please shed light on what modules I am missing ?

Thanks!
Ray

Passenger side engine compartment fuse box

Thanks ! I called the guy I bought it from and he magically had the ecu on his bench in his shop ! He had a bunch of these AMG CL 55 omg so he is "not sure" if this is the one for the car. (UGH). I plugged it in and get one "message" ...ESP go to shop.
All of the dash lights come on and key turns but no start. Battery is brand new. Checked every fuse in car and all good.
Ordered a OB2 scanner so will see what codes are present.
I appreciate any and all suggestions !
