I have C180K W204 model of 2008. The key is turning but the car is not even cranking or starting, the dash doesnt light up, i have power to the radio, hazards lights and parking lights only, clock and dash illumination with the mileage.
Diagnostic showed an EIS fault and related errors in Steering lock..my steering is in "unlock" condition, the diagnostic guy said i should replace the EIS. I called the local garage to arrange for bringing it in then described the problem and was told the problem is with the "Steering lock" - which needs to be taken ou and reprogrammed.
Now i have two independent people almost saying the same thing but have different solutions to the problem. If there is anyone who can advise i would apreciate.
