S320 CDI Help from the UK

Greetings and a Happy New Year.

I have an issue with my S class. Recently the car wouldnt start, then I changed the starter motor on it, then it worked fine for an hour. Then the car went completely dead. There is no electrics working whatsoever.

The car does not turn or anything however the ignition sucks the key but when I turn it, nothing happens, engine does not make a noise.

Have put a Code reader to it, but no joy on that front. I have been told it may be an ECU issue- thus replacing it. But don't want to go for that, as I put a new starter motor in and did not need one!

Can anyone shed some light on this please.

Thanks


Omar

Suspect the battery cables , the rings that attach to the battery or the grounding straps if you're getting absolutely no power or lights
