My 99 s-class s320 has started showing warnings that says ACTIVE BODY CONTROL ABC VISIT WORKSHOP!

After parking the car the message despaired, weird its happens 3 times today right after Transmission slipping is to neutral in various speeds

Also most wired this car should not have ABC

Any advise is greatly appreciated

Your car doesn't have abc

has it rained recently ? Sounds more like some electronics problems , check under the windshield plastic grille to see if the reservoir is filled with water . Also check the tcu in the underhood electrical boxes to see if it has fluid or water on it

If there's no problems there , lastly check how old your battery is , could be errors from a weak battery

thanks Tusabes, the car is parked in my garage no rained since I bought it
the windshield plastic is clean
tcu - both of them is in great condition
battery was dead and replaced 2 weeks ago

ok, i found the tcm is leaking oil, i guess need to replace the transmission connector and oil pan gasket / plate.

It's always fluid /wAter damage when we see these kinds of errors

after the cleanup with cheap electric spay
i get ABS ESP ABC warnings, i think its dead!

Probably just need to reset all the settings


see the encyclopedia thread at the top of the forum for how to do all the resets
