Merc e220cdi non starter

**florinyes** · 15th February, 2011, 05:52 PM

Hi

Got this one in as a non starter..

Key turns but not cranking. If I'll press starter relay by hand and hold the key to crank starts..

Looks like a relay module to me but anyone had this before? Apart from p1330 under the engine no fault codes..EZS seems to be fine..

Hi guys

all fuses checked and fine..
Car is manual so no inhibitor switch..

Can I just borrow a starter relay module from another one to try it on or it has to be codded in?

I can ask a mate to come down if another one can be tryed on.

Cheers

sorry, unable to assit this thread, it was only part of a rumor, it was such a bad rumor what was left of it fell apart after posting to unable to confirm, but do beleive so.

Tryed a good known relay module and still no good. Is the EZS the only culprit or engine ECU has anything to do with starting at all?

Looking at a autodata wiring diagram look like ecu involved too..

Mate,

If you have SD handy, just check in EZS if term50 gets activated when you turn key in to "start engine" position.

To start engine EZS will have to get OK from ESL and from ECU.
What is the status of ECU in EZS authorisation values?

**florinyes** · 16th February, 2011, 10:50 PM

EZS terminal 50 IN=yes
OUT=no

Cheers

How did you get on with this , have a w210 which will not start keys turns in ezs and esl releases, but vehicle does not start and ezs at terminal 50 = yes when key is turned

Having grief with this one mate..Narrow it down to ECU or ESL but how can I be sure?

Checked all wiring and fine..also considering the history of the car (battery going flat every few days) I wouldn't consider a wiring problem.

Gonna plug in again 2moro to re check everything..can't even remember actual values ..
After tomorrow going on a short ski holiday so I'll keep ya updated when back on Tuesday.
