Hi,
My CLS 320 2008 developed a strange fault today, first of all the alarm went off for no reason, then the horns were sounding constantly, I opened the car, turned the ignition on and they stopped, I turned the ignition off but then it wouldn't let me turn it back on again and the gearstick was stuck in park. I disconnected the battery, connected it back up and was able to turn the ignition on again, but once I turned it off it was stuck again, remove the key and put it back in and without turning it , the ignition is on, remove the key and the ignition is off. I disconnected the battery again, started the engine and moved the gearstick to neutral started the engine, but when I turned the key to the off position the engine still ran and even when I disconnected the battery it still ran, I had to remove the fuel pump relay to stop the engine.
What the hell is all that about?
