Hi Guys. I had my abc sensor rings replaced and car was working perfect for about an hour. Took it to be washed and after that the car stalled as I was driving down the road.

I heard some relays popping behind me as it stalled.

Now the car won’t start or even try to start.

went into the boot and found its was wet on the wiring so I have disconnected it all and allowed it to dry out.

the car radiator runs full blast as you turn the key to point 3.

All the dash lights up but just won’t turn the car over. I’ve tried re charging both batteries which are 2 weeks old but still nothing.

im going to test the 5v ref on some sensors but first I need a wiring diagram.

ill also be going through every single fuse to check it’s good and the connectors inside are solid.

the car has been attached to star but it’s showing many many faults which probably occurred as I heard the relays popping during the stall.

will be dissecting and tracing back the original fault on Tuesday but I want to get some tests done first.

can anybody provide a wiring diagram?

cheers.

I owned a '69 280SL. The wiring diagram consisted of a single page. The wiring diagram of an SL55 consists of dozens of pages. I haven't a clue which one your are after, and since you lacked the sense to even sate the year of your vehicle, I'm not inclined to help you. Sorry.

I'd get a copy of WIS. You can find it on eBay for under $30. it has all the wiring diagrams and shop manual info you need.

The schematics for most modern Mercedes are here: http://benz.ehost.tj/. If you click on a schematic and are using an older version of Internet Explorer with the "Whip" add-on from Autodesk, you will be able to immediately view the schematic. Otherwise you will be prompted to save it as a ".dwf" file which can be then opened using free "Design Review" software: https://www.autodesk.com/products/de...eview/download

I can`t imagine how much time average mechanic was spending to figure out what broke on a car when it was not a major problem. With obd 2 you can have your problem isolated in just a few clicks and even for free. No need to adjust 2 bolts on carburetor, you can have a message of a damaged tire with a leak, remember how easy it was to start carburetor car in cold winter time and how it was driving before reaching working temperature?
From the other hand overengeneering is bad, but it is more towards cut off your ability to repair car on your own.
Massachusetts woted Yes for right to repair on cars, unfortunately manufacturer can walk around that...
Same with electronics, it`s not yours, you borrowing it.

Hi Bob, I am running on win 10, but can't complete the app, is it an obvious fix?

Here is hi,, as would you not had to change entire wiring. I have was such a same situation and I changed entire wiring, so as she has deteriorated interconnected
At first I thought that this problem would only be in the battery terminal on which the water was penetrated, but I was wrong.
I really wished I'd seen the battery. All my sensors were on all the time, all the errors on the dashboard were highlighted, of course because of the error. I turned to bates-electric.com which my work colleague told me about. And they changed all the wiring for me. I didn't think that I would get into this situation because of such a stupid mistake, so guys be careful and be more careful! Otherwise, you will have to face serious problems.
