Mercedes C Class W204 Steering Lock ESL fault. No ignition, car not starting. How to repair.

Hi
This car came to me as a non runner, no ignition at all.
A scan revealed a steering lock malfunction.
So I removed the steering lock, and the rest, is on the video…
Hope you find some useful information on this video.
Any questions please put them below.
Like always, thank you for watching!

hey great video, i have a question for you can you share the link from the company you buy your emulator from please

Ivan Serracin says:

Today I open the ELV module to check if the problem is mechanic or electronic, I put 2 wires in the motor to test if the problem is with motor or electronic, I used a 9 volts battery, and the motor work good in both directions, so at this moment I think that the problem is electronic, but I don't know why a lot of people say that the problem is always the motor, what do you think about this

Ivan Serracin says:

Thanks for your answer, I understand now, you think that is better to give the programming of emulator to somebody else?, or If I buy the tools for programming is too expensive?

Ivan Serracin says:

Hi I want to know if when you buy the Emulator all tools for programing are included?, I saw in Ebay the emulator cost in USD 89.00

Very informative I'm sure this video will be extremely helpful to any one who is unfortunate to own a Mercedes. Just bought a b class myself.drat.

Larry Hurst says:

Should have sent PCB to Louis and let him replace the chip, lol. I wonder if the chip could have been removed and replaced with one from a donor board. But without schematics and knowing what the pins do, probably not. I feel your pain on specialized repair and needing another tool, that is expensive. It seems the manufacturers have the ability to make simple repairs difficult due to specialization in tooling. Really enjoyed the video, especially the explanations at the end on reassembly and removal. Sometimes the most difficult part can be removal of components without breaking anything.

Good job. I laughed when I noticed that the emulator even mimics the sound of the motor 17:55 !
