You can flick the wiper lock out switch in the bonnet latch to move the wiper linkage out of your way, same on C and S class

I have the same problem with an 02 Mercedes ES320. I can’t seem to get a good electrical drawing ALLDATA. Wireless are not even matching up. My fuse panel in the passenger side is almost identical to yours with a couple fuses not used on mine. ECM looks almost identical as well but I know they may not be pinned the same. Using the same pressure sensor you referenced to on your R500 I am only getting .449 volts to the center pin (Red/white) .005 Volts on one side pin (white/black) and .000 volts on the other side pin (Brown and white). All fuses were checked. We even tried swapping the ECM with the exact part number no help. What wire would my 5volt reference voltage? And any idea how to get a good wiring diagram. Oh and I did check all the fuses.

Getting a manual is like asking your boss if you can knob his Mrs, you need it but there is nothing on earth that will get you one

Believe me nothing is easy on a merc. I have one and its like a love hate relationship

Is the floor pan/carpet wet? That would tell you the magnitude of water leak.

Important thing I learned here is when checking for power at fuse, also pull the fuse to check for corrosion.

i just last week had an instance where the meter became the load and caused a voltage drop so it becomes totally relevant after having experienced it and it could send you down a rabbit hole if not careful.

I'm not understanding how the icm is sending the input to the PCM to fire the coils, yet have a 0v flatline signal. How would this not prevent the coils and injectors from firing? Must be something I'm missing. Thank you scanner Danner for all that you do! I can learn this stuff all day.

The mousture is from a sunroof drain hose leaking either due to being clogged, or broken tubing, or someone was working on it before and didnt reconnect it.

Superb lecture. Thanks a lot.

I don’t know if your still active on this channel but I’m having some trouble with my 2002 Mercedes Benz c32 amg No crank no start checked all relays and fuses no problem except starter fuse upped it to a 20amp but nothing. There is no signal to the obd2 port, I took out the fuse box front and didn’t see anything wrong, I also got a cloned ECU and nothing. I’m very lost at the moment and can’t find a solution if you can please reply with some help that would be greatly appreciated. Also the fan does kick on just like in the video but I checked the starter and it works the motor spun no problem. But with the key nothing. thank you!

This is absolutely fantastic. What a great presentation.

If the square wave reference signal is 5v, and you apply 12v from the battery via a test light, would that not cause some sort of issue somewhere?

Where are you located?

Hey coach! I know its hard to teach because our mind can run only so much. But you did it very well. I understand it all. Thank you so much. God gave you a gift above average. The Lord is Good!

I actually diagnosed a 2005 chevy impala 3.8l using that same test i learned from you scanner danner.

1999 Chysler Sebring got me like this. Aggravating once I discovered it.

Love your class, keep up the good work and God bless

I have followed scanner Danner for sometime. Awesome material!

At first I thought your lessons too advanced to me , but with your simple methods, I started understanding and enjoying them.

Hello Paul Danner.... I was wondering if you had any videos of disabling the EGR by removing or plugging it hose, or disconnecting one of its control solenoids and taking a vacuum reading at idle and again at 2500 rpms? I have seen where you connected to the DPFE sensor. Is this a different scenario or similar to the one I am describing? Thank for any information in this manner... @ScannerDanner

Whats the name of the application you have on the board. How are you able to write on that screen?...

I have to say guys ... I've been watching Danner for 10 years now . And I have been educated to an higher degree in my education than I have ever been ... If you don't have the determination of learning then this video is not for you.. go back to first grade and stay there if you want to stay in the same hole for the rest of your life .

Sir,i am from India Very nice speech

I need Danner to be my nextdoor neighbor

I have slk230 has crank but not start can I get some guide to fix it ?

Hey Dan, maybe I missed something here. But if you’re checking short to ground on the highest Ohms setting with one lead hooked to ground and the other lead attached to one end of the unplugged circuit wire , how does that complete the circuit when the other end of the wire is unplugged? Thanks for educating me.

May sound weird but i can connect with his story even more because his younger years were fueled by drug related bullshit and his conscious told him he was better than that. Your a legend Paul and help me everyday.

He sounds like he is spitting automotive electrical at an open mic! 😊

This is literally one of the best most useful things I have ever learned about automobiles! Thanks Paul! I owe u!

ScannerDanner is such a great teacher, one of the best

AAAAArrrrgh, the Viper alarm "short to GRN"..I wonder if the alarm in my '03 Dakota is similar(maybe wired the same way) My Dakota was stollen, wrecked and left for dead. Still can't figure it out. I called the alarm dealer, they stated if the thief was able to start the truck, there's nothing beyond that in regard to theft detection/shut-down, or recovery tracking. Currently, "crank no start" I get fuel pressure(42psi) continuity, ground & pulse signal from CKP & CMP to Ecm no 5v out (pin#7) to ignition. Replace the ECM, everybody says, and still NOTHING!!!

🤣 run a wire anyways Paul! I support it! As always, you the man!

Hello, Paul You have mentioned partial short to ground in the video, would you be willing to explain to us what a partial short is? You have not made a video explaining a partial short to ground so far.

Someone please help me I’ve spent over 600 since Thursday still haven’t found issue. 97 Tahoe 5.7 vortec once warms up gets out of second gear can’t stay at a steady speed without it sounds like trynna stall but never ever does just have to hit gas harder to get it to stop then goes right back to doing it bs when u try to go a steady speed. Only does it when warmed up and after 2nd gear. Brand new distributor and crank but still throwing out that code. That code is the only code my truck throws but that issue I’m just so loss I need help someone please help

Great lesson to learn from!! Thanks!!

This is what I love 👏👏👏 This is what I've been looking for

He’s at again ! Teaching the next generation. Great job

Truth! Pick/choose your diag path correctly...

i am just curious i have watch many of you youtube why not go directly to the obd port to test the 5 volts reference, i watch in youtube there is a 5 volts sensor in the obd port

CLOTHES HANGER; Almost impossible to Stop. The rain run off from the outside windshield drain clogged, use a straighten clothes hanger and stick it down the drain screen slot you should be able to see the hanger go all the way to the ground take a look under the car to make sure the hanger went all the way through to the ground to clean out leaves and dirt or water will come into the car on to the floor boards and wet the fuses, two drains to clean out with a straight clothes hanger. Mercedes Benz was already sued and loss the class action for such a poor design in a $100,000 car, for water getting into the fuse boxes in and out of the car.. A free clothes hanger tool and a quick fix. How stupid is that from a certified Mercedes Benz technician Cherry Hill, N.J.

My wife found a bad wire in my car doing this exact same process.

parallel resistance is the inverse of the sum of the inverses: ie = 1/ (1/ R1 +1/ R2 + 1/R3....)

We love you too. =D

subscribed to positive lead for Tommy Volkswagen wagon was 👍 great😊

👍👍

Good job sir. I liked your lecture, very informative. Keep up the good work.

So if i know i have output voltage to Terminals 15 and 75X at 0.288 =0.29 with no signal from and for my output voltage at Terminal 50 what should i be checking from there in determining why its off and no signal is coming from it when it should ??

I have the same issue with a 2006 ML500
