CANT START AFTER 6 MONTHS OR MORE SITTING

Hello,
I need some help. I bought a 2010 S 63 AMG at auction with minor front bumper damage listed as "run and drive." The bumper is not broken j





It will not turn over, only a slight click from inside the car. I have charged to the front battery overnight - no change - the transport had to clear a code or use his autel code scanner to get it out of park (at least he appeared to do that lol)
The car had excellent service records -
I have an icarsoft scanner which appears to show a lot of low or under-voltage - but I need to recheck as I had it set to 221 not 222

Any suggestions would be appreciated. It has 95k miles

Walter

Have you tried jump starting it connected to another vehicle? I would assume the battery in the S63 is completely shot and not taking charge.

Your car is a W221, not a W222. This is the wrong forum. A mentioned above, it is most likely your battery.
