1999 s320 Problems after starting

Some times when i start the car it gives the same display as when you have pluged on/off the battery.

The car starts and the abs light shows the display shows EPS,Air system and so on. I would say that almoast every thing is showing.

What i do is turn off the car lock it/unlock it the turn it on. The system often then is back to normal but some times i have to do this prosigure one or two times to get it right.

Anyone have a clue?

Might just need resetting, I had a similar problem with a dying battery and so check the condition of your battery first and make sure it is up to the job. If the battery is good and the warning lights still come on when you start, keep it running and turn the steering wheel full right lock and then full left lock and repeat until the lights go out - you may only need to do this one or two turns and they should go out. If not, it will diagnosing.

Thanks for the reply.

I will check the battery sounds like it could be it. I hardly drive the car now days.

What do you mean by turning right/left, is there a way to diagnos the car that way? If so how do you do it ?
