Check Engine Light

2017 E 300 4 Matic

Got a check engine light on yesterday as I was leaving the parking lot:

1: P060600 - An internal control module fault exists in the processor
2: P217700 - The mixture (cylinder bank 1) is too lean in partial load operation.

I cleared all the codes with my OBDII scanner and drove it around the parking lot and nothing. Turned the car on the next morning and drove about 8-10 miles, check engine light comes back on (I haven't scanned the codes yet, waiting to do that in the AM). The car drives fine and nothing feels different. I put in 93 Octane fuel from Mobil/Shell per usual. Spark plugs have less than 20,000 miles on them and I've already replaced the PCV valve and know the system doesn't have a leak.

Would anyone know what the issue could be? I was thinking maybe the O2 sensor/MAF sensors might need to be replaced?

Has anyone had any of these codes/problems in the past that can give any insight on the issue on either of the codes?

Any help is appreciated!

It sounds like you would need to do some more in-depth diagnostics. Those codes would lead me to suspect the ECU (first code), a bad or dirty MAF sensor or dirty/clogged fuel injectors (second code).

Are you using a MB-aware scanner, hopefully XEntry?

If so, try looking a freeze frame data --> Data when the event happened.

From the data decisions can be made for the next step.
First code is too generic about the ECU having an internal integrity issue --> it could be hardware (as simple as a blown FUSE, or poor battery health -> nearly dead battery), or software
Second code more data is needed, but it can be related to rail fuel pressure, but having more data would make it easier.

The current trend is to get the Launch Creader Elite X431 v2.0 for Benz

You can get it from Amazon, or AliExpress


unless you want to get an XEntry clone. But that is more than $200.

Here is @S-Prihadi discussion on v1.0 https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...ml#post8678148
