clk 230 kompressor
hi all,brand new to this but not new to owning mercedes 5th one now-just got about 3 weeks ago a 2000 clk 230 avantgarde komp-everthing was going great until last week when i noticed the bas esp dash light is on-car has been driving mint until today when i nearly lost it as the back end slid out twice whilst going round some pretty basic roundabouts and not even going faster than normal-road was wet but should not have been a problem-i looked in the handbook and noticed that the brake assist and stability control are dis-abled when this light comes on and assume thats what caused the slide-Any advice on the best route to address this to start with ie faulty sensors or take straight to garage thanks in advance :dk:
 
It can often due to a faulty brake light switch but rather than guess find a local MB specialist with the Star computer system and get a diagnostic test.
 
Sound advice above , but as the switch is about a tenner , it's worth changing it as a matter of course before you fork out for a STAR diagnostic which will be considerably more than a tenner.

95% it will be the brake light switch
 
hi ,thanks for the advice,I changed the brake light switch with brand new one but bas esp light on dash is still on-what would you recommend to look at next thanks steve
 
Did you reset it after fitting ?

Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock twice.
