The SBC-Stop and the SBC-Hold was left work, when i put the car in a center auto washing car. When i went bring the car, the system nevermore work.

What i need to do?

Thanks
I remember couple of cases where SBC hold disable was due to error in gear selector module.
You system has not been updated because STOP is remved from system then...
One thing came up my mind; you said this happened after car wash; check the drains under the aux battery (under the combination filter, passenger side in engine bay), as well as boot floor in case of water damage... (but flood problem should also be seen usually several other electrical problem and fault codes..)

Check out possible water damages/corrosion around the aux battery, fuse boxes and boot.
Faulty aux battery would cause red alert in instrument cluster so I think battery itself is not a culprit here.

When you said ''boot'' are the baggage of car behind?
Thanks

OP:I'm suggesting to see any water damage because your problems started after washing (engine bay box in drivers side, aux battery area and trunk overall bottom yes), otherwise I would say its gearbox/shifter related.
Here some discussion in UK forum:

OP:
I've done so digging, definately there has been many faults in gear selector module. There is some switch grounding problem which does not affect to gearbox operation but sends info to SBC. Document GI42.46-P-037367 tells more (sorry couldn't find it).
Sometimes faulty door pin (or bonnet/trunk) switch is disabling hold feature because car thinks door is open.








To the other questions here. The W211 exported to US had the SBC-H and SBC-S functions disabled. At that time MBUSA feared that such an advanced function will discombobulate the rich housewife MB demographic causing fender benders and making their family lawyers sue MB. Forward 10 years after most car manufacturers introduced similar features and it is back on.
As mentioned above here you need the DAS to recode the Central Gateway Module to RDW (Rest of the World in german) from US.
I have done this to my 04 E500 and 06 SL500 and I cannot drive without them anymore. I am not sure about 06 and newer. For example the SBC-S is not present at all in 06 SL500. To some extent these functions were tied to the SBC system, if the system was abandoned after 06, I do not know if the functions are still there.
Seems options vary dependent on model and year.
that will fix it
