Dear Folks,

First of all I would like to thank each and everyone here for their wonderful contributions. God Bless.

My ML55 does not start, no crank, but all electrical components are working.

Have a parasite drain, which usually kills my battery, and used to jump start.

One day after 2-3 cracks during jump start, no more crack, thought my jumper battery was dead.

Got it charged up, tried to start, no crank, after turning key from 2 to 3 position.

Went through most of the related posts. Cant get my head around this.

DAS led 👍
Starter 👍
Fuses 👍

Gave it to a Mercedes mechanic.

Couldn't figure out, so he fixed a switch near the ignition , after turning the key to position 2, pressing the switch would start the ML55 after couple of tries.

What does this mean?..............Couldn't figure out, so he fixed a switch near the ignition , after turning the key to position 2, pressing the switch would start the ML55 after couple of tries.

All of those codes must be deleted. Then check for codes again.

 

Dear Dundee,

Got MaxiAP AP200.

Cleared codes as advised.

Below are the existing codes after clearing.

1.1. C1320 Component 'Y10 (Speed-sensitive Power Steering (SPS/PML) solenoid valve)' is faulty or the wiring to the component has an open circuit
Current

1.2. C1140-12 N49 (Steering Angle Sensor (SAS))
MIL ON&Current

1.3. C1032 Fault in CAN communication with the control module 'Instrument Cluster'.
Stored

1.4. C1000 N47-5 (ESP, Speed-sensitive Power Steering (SPS/PML) and Brake Assist System (BAS) control module)
MIL ON&Current

1.5. C1142 B24/2 (ESP Lateral Acceleration Sensor (LAS)
MIL ON&Current


2.1. B1042 Fault in CAN communication with the control module'Brake Assist System'.
Stored&Current

3.1. B1642-0 Left low beam :Open circuit , Short circuit to positive
Stored

4.1. P1747 Defective Interaction of CAN With Control Unit A1(instrument cluster)
Stored

4.2. P0410 Scondary Air Injection (AIR) : fault ( function chain)
Current

Hope this is helpful

 

BIG QUESTION: SNCE THE DEALER SAID MY AAM is not communicating and they can not replace it (obsolete), can I replace all my computers with a used set from another car including the key, will that work since everything is synchronized/proprietary. No one in the Dallas area has any good news for me about the 2004 ML350 being able to be repaired. Does anyone have any suggestions, good interior, body, paint, new tires, good engine/tranny but I can't start it or go anywhere?
