Bas Light

I have a 1999 e240 and the
BAS lights on..
Changed the brake switch,,
changed the battery 88ah,,
turned the steering from left to right to reccalibrate the ESP sterring angle sensor.
What next, besides the back window now needs a new regulator because I had to Synchronize the windows and the dam thing made lots off lovely gruntting noises.
Merc tech feels its either the computer or a switch that just behind the round diaphragm thing.
And if they put it in and still doesnt work well,,,you still have to pay for the parts.
At $110,000 new in australia, god u reckon it should last for ever.
So gents please can someone give me some sound advise please.
I have only travelled 75 km or 35 miles.

A little off topic, I've been away for a while...so which state has Black on White number plates these days? Vic or SA?

Sounds like the travel sensor in the brake booster. A tech should pull the codes before changing parts. Guessing will just get expensive (on ANY modern car).
