Battery went dead while connected to Star DAS

Last-night I had my car hooked up to DAS star diagnostics. I went in the house to do something, got sidetracked and was so tired I wandered right in to bed and fell asleep.. When I went into my garage this morning I realized what I had done so i unplugged the star system and noticed the interior lights weren't' even on.. I've never jumped this car before.. So I hooked up to the battery to a charger/jumper. The lights came on but wouldn't jump..Will there be issues because it was hooked up to star when the battery went dead?

Damn no bites? You should be able to start the car with a high amp booster pack. Most likely your battery is fried (full discharge is not good), but in either case place it on a tender. There's also a strong possibility that you might have bricked some modules but you won't know until you get a battery full of juice installed into your car.

Just also read this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...computers.html

Seems like he might have also had the same 'dead battery' issue. Either way let us know what happens when you replace it.

I did fry the battery.. I went and bought a battery charger and it'll only charge up to 6 volts..Had to lug that giant battery out of the trunk and bring it into N.T.B. A cpl ppl commented on the size of the battery.

LOL, I did the same in a porsche v8 cayenne and burned out BOTH batteries. Biggest ones I've seen in a SUV, 2 full size battery's in the POS that cost me $350 a pop. Not a good day for me
