Multiple 'Inoperative' faults on 2014 E350
Hi All! First post on this forum...in anticipation, thanks to all who respond!
While driving home last night, my 2014 E350 suddenly started cycling through all kinds of fault messages on the dash...
- Pre Safe Inoperative
- Cruise Control Inoperative
- Active Blind spot assist inoperative
Also, speed indicator fluctuated for a couple minutes before dropping off to indicate 0 MPH.
Brake light ON and of course, Check Engine icon was ON too.
Also, Steering Wheel became stiff - so power steering likely not operating.
Seemed like electrical glitches associated with the control system rather than one specific sensor.
So, I parked and turned OFF car for a couple minutes. But, problems persisted after restarting.
Needed to get home, so drove on another 10mins with the faults flashing and car beeping. Haven't turned it ON again...
No recent repairs. Car serviced about 3 months ago. Has been raining hard last couple days where the car is parked in the open...but nothing new or unusual otherwise!
Any idea what might be happening?
