bas or esp

Guys, I've had my car for 14 days today :D, the BAS/ESP light has come on intermittently from day one, I went to MB and was told the brake switch is the most likely culprit so I bought one and it fitted today, guess what? no change, the light still comes on so, whats my next move please? could...

Had this light on for 2 weeks now. sometimes stays off for 5 mins before coming on but most of the time on as soon as engine started. Any thoughts on this please??:dk: Also noticed today that preglow lamp stayed on for 5 mins before going out. Any ideas why this would have happened. never seen...

Some time ago BAS/ESP light came off on dashboard. Then it whent off by it self after engine was switched off for about 30min. When it happend ASR and ESP stop working (ABS was ok). It happend like that 3 times for no reason. Any idea anyone?

Just driving down the motorway and the BAS ESP and EPC warnings come on. The ESP switch does nothing. My car has Parameter steering and this seems to be inoperative ( I still have power steering, but its heavier now). What are your thoughts??

I disconnected the battery in my CLK320 this evening to try and fix another problem, but when I reconnected it straight away got an ABS fault and BAS/ESP fault. I quick check of the fuse boxes (front and rear) showed there where no fuses for the ABS in them so where are they??? Or do I need...

The internet is truly a wonderful thing and the iPhone is truly a wonderful device! My W163 took it upon itself to pack up on me yesterday while I was in a traffic queue in a busy central London thoroughfare. Had I known that it would lock the transmission I would never had put the selector...

Hi, I'm new to this fourm. I have searched and read the many posts around BAS/ESP light, but am really after some advice on cost of repair, and was hoping the experts could throw in their 2p worth. Background: Its a 1999 ML320 with (only) 50,000 on the clock. On a recent, long trip, BAS/ESP...

Oh I do hope I get this post in the right location? :confused: While I have your interest I have just had a problem with the warning lights showing on my instrument cluster 'A' Class when I drive. I found out after trial and error that if I stopped re-started the car and drove off the lights...

Hi, Can anyone help? Just bought an 2001 ML270 CDI and had a few problems. Initially after collecting the car (bought at auction!) the vehicle would not accelerate properly and the BAS/ESP light was on. It was diagnosed as an air mast meter and a replacement cured the acceleration problem but...

Hi guys, Had a weird thing happen this morning, got into the car, 2001 SL320, and sat in it for a few mins so that it would warm up a bit. Drove down the road litterally for 2-3 mins and taht BAS/ESP light come on? so i pooped it and pulled over, remebering the sync method full lock right...

hi all, i've recently encountered a bit of a problem with my 1999 ML320 - when starting the car, occasionally when driving, sometimes the BAS/ESP light on my dash lights up, along with the warning triangle, and the car seems to go crazy - it judders along quite vigorously, like the brakes are...

Something odd this morning when I left for work. After starting the engine (2000 C200T) from cold, the ESP/BAS warning light remained on until I arrived at work (approx 12 miles). No loss of power, no other other instrument failures (as far as I'm aware) This evening on way home, again...

Hi there! I've got a 1999 A class and I experienced a bit of a problem this morning. While pulling away and starting to accelerate the engine momentarily hesitated and the entire instrument cluster lit up (like upon ignition) and when the car started to accelerate again the BAS/ESP warning light...

My nephew has an A160 ACS 1999 48k miles and has just recently developed the fault of the BAS and ABS lamp remaining on after a few times of flickering on and off, it is now permanently on. I test drove the car and on trying to emergency stop it seemmed evident the ABS is not working (no judder...

Hi, Driving home this evening and the ABS & BAS/ESP warning lights up. This is the second time this has happened in the past week. Car drives fine. When restarting the car the warnings lights have turned off. Could it just be a loose connection or is there some sort of other electrical...

Hi, I've had an SLK230 now for about 4 months and the BAS/ESP warning lamp is appearing intermittently. Took it down to a specialist in London who said it was probably the brake light switch which they replaced. Lamp still came on afterwards. Took car back to them and they cleared...
