[@q135980]

The front SAM (Signal Acquisition Module) is either disconnected or damaged. The center row of controls run off the front SAM including the hazards, rear headrest release and central locking, among other things. The front SAM is located in the front fuse box, you will need to remove some screws to access it within the fuse box. This looks like a promising car, you just need to have a little background knowledge about the features in the car to properly repair it. It's very similar to other Mercedes models from the time as far as the features and how they're operated.

[@q135980]

@Commentor1 Well it is not exactly a cheap car by any means, but it's in better shape than many in it's price range these days. It's in very good condition for being $1000 out the door, it will need to be treated as what it is......a $150,000 car. There's no such thing as a cheap luxury car, they don't exist. So if you can't pony up the money or time to take care of it, it will be a mistake to try to own it for long

[@q135980]

@Commentor1 I completely agree, however I believe that he doesn't really intend to completely restore it to like new condition.....that would end up costing a minimum of $10,000, the body work would add another $5000 at least. Fixing the mechanical/electrical issues will get expensive quick depending on the ABC suspension condition, along with common wear items like flex discs and the transmission conductor plate/end connector plug o rings. If he does everything himself, it can be certainly feasible but by no means cheap to fix everything. Without a scan tool with 38 pin multiplexer and WIS/ASRA at minimum, it's not going to be possible to diy many things on this car. With the right skill set and tools, it can be restored and maintained properly but many people are not equipped to service these cars completely. I have no idea what kind of expense he would encounter by having the frame pulled but it can't be cheap, that's the most daunting part about this.

I’m pretty sure true S55 AMG all were supercharged until 2006, and based on the longer wheelbase. As opposed to an AMG dress up package. Also, if there is no signature plate on the engine it is not handbuilt and not AMG. Still a nice car, but not AMG.

Fix it up and put on coil overs instead of the air Matic if it’s still equipped with that. Fix the sensor for cheap, and whatever cheap fixes you can get out of it and keep it. If not, have fun with it then part it out. You’ll make way more parting it out. 👏👌
