2013 s550 weird crank no start issue
I have a 2013 s550 4matic with amg sport package and face lift. It has happened to me a couple times now. I will go to start car and It starts for a few seconds then I see
Presafe innoperative see owners manual then
Parking guidance inoperative see owners manual.
The command screen will be completely black
And the car will shut off. Then I get a check engine light on saying (cheap scanner UO109) fuel pump .
I am the proud owner of a benzninja computer and he scaned it when it was doing it and found the fault code of fuel pump. Saying I should replace the pump I explained to him the weirdest part is, the second I see command and radio turn on car starts no problem. Which I came back a few hours later and had him connected and command came on and car started no problem.
after a few starts that check engine light goes away..
He said next step would be replace auxiliary battery to see if it helps.
I replaced the battery with a Walmart h8 battery a few weeks ago. And it has still happened a couple times. Since
I cleared the rain drains when I picked up the car to try and avoid having water issues in fiuse box
I've checked fuses
I unplugged battery for 20 minutes
Just trying to get your guys opinion if anyone has had similar issues.
It hasn't bothered me until last night when I took my wife and son on a trip a couple hours away and it happened in not the greatest of neighborhood at night and it wouldn't start for 2 hours. Very embarrassing as I love the car but had my wife questioning my purchase of it after this.
Sorry it is early and my xentry is dead in my trunk so I just used the picture I had on my phone.

600 AUXILIARY BATTERY
12V-12AH 001 A 00 198 227 08 - $94.17
weirdly this shows its in the boot - maybe this is a stop start logic control battery too - I thought these sat under the dash of later 221s?

Benzninja suggested trying the auxillary battery under the dash to see if it happens again.then we could diagnose again
I will take it out later today and test the voltage on the auxillary and check the voltage on the main battery as well.
JUst weird that it starts completely fine one I see command screen come back on.
These are the xentry results while the car was having the issue starting.
H8 as I see on the interweb is the main battery, not the baby aux battery as fitted to later cars

when you check the first picture of Xentry - the Engine and both SAM report faults - all the rest in other modules is just usual garbage - when you go into those three modules what's it say is actually causing the quick scan " F " for Fault ?

Main thing I noticed now getting in the car is if some lights aren't on I assume it is going to have the starting issues.
I have replaced with new batteries. Already
