COLLISION ASSIST SENSOR LOCATION

Is there anyone that has a photo of the EXACT LOCATION of the collision assist sensor its on the right front bumper somewhere but I cant find any info on it anywhere and until I can get this thing wired up places and programmed it has me screwed for getting this car registered with a check engine light on.

If you're referring to the radar sensor, isn't it behind the large Mercedes logo in the center of the grill? There are also ultrasonic parking sensors but those are very obvious.

In most cases you are correct but my car came with the illuminated star. MB says it goes on the bumper on the right side and that seems correct because the wires wont even reach the star.

i was under the impression that the illuminated star could not be installed on cars with Distronic. What are you trying to do?

This car for what ever reason came like that. I does not have the parking sensors which seems odd but its the way it came. I have two things going on now, one is this U0121 code which is communication failure between the ABS and PCM that I NEED to get sorted out ASAP so that I can smog this car and get my get registration up to date. Second Is the collision assist prevent is not functioning but that is because the sensor is not installed. I called MB and they said it goes on the right side of the bumper but I be damned if I can tell where. I gave them my VIn number an the part they said i need is 000 905 29 04 so I bought and it plugs in but it needs to be mounted.

I have to say this all sounds very bizarre. No CLS is sold without parking sensors is it?!... what happened to those? It's possibly your car didn't have the Distronic package installed, but simply adding the sensor to the front is probably not all that's required to get that functionality working. As I said before, I'm fairly certain the distronic sensors are installed in the CLS behind the big Mercedes logo in the front grill. If you have the illuminated star there, you will need to remove it. But again, this all sounds very strange.

I replaced the bumper and the sensors are all there. I purchased the harness and it has a large plug on it but no where on my car is there a plug this large for it to plug into. When I give them my Vin they come back with the small plug for this sensor. It is all strange indeed. Now I am far more interested in getting this U0121 code dealt with as THAT is really holding up the show. The CEL light on is an instant smog failure and that I can not have. I am praying that its a bad wire or ground because if its the ABS module thats a $1000 easy

It appears the original owner obviously custom ordered the car and didn't want parktronic as part of the configuration for whatever reason.
