AUXILIARY BATTERY ?
am gonna learn A WHOLE LOT from this thread

You dey mind those useless people for Mercedes? The main battery is 100 amps, wtf do they need a backup battery for?

rationalmind:
That's why in most cases, you'll hardly see the owner of the vehicle.

If you see anyone by the vehicle, it's the mechanic fixing it

- Oga, you sef go take cover.

That's the second Honda, I'm seeing in 3 days. First was a 2nd Gen Pilot. Sometimes, I feel so sad for the owners, then I remember my own multiple challenges with a Merc (limp mode due to failed speed sensors), the deep stares and curses hurled at me by fellow drivers and trekkers alike was so embarrassing that i had to keep my windows wound up even though the car refused to supply power to the AC, Radio and other convenience electrical consumables.

weyreypey:
Always involving an Honda

Mehn, there's nothing as embarrassing as this

GAZZUZZ:

Bros G abeg I use God name beg you, help DreCharles -

weyreypey:
You are not hopeless after all. Kingreign is doing a great job with you

DreCharles:
Okay, I'll check and replace. Thank you.

Stop this, it's a rabbit hole

DreCharles:
DreCharles:

Original codes
P0170..Fuel trim bank 1
P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304....Cylinder1 to 4 misfire
P0340... Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Bank 1 or Single Sensor

Then I cleaned throttle body, change nozzle, maf, air filter

Drove fine but started getting misfires and non rev occasionally. Rescanned and got just the cylinder misfires codes

Let's start with the easy one first, where have you been getting fuel lately? I hope you didn't throw away that MAF? As for the nozzles, did you buy a complete set (direct toks - shouldn't be more than 4k), I still suspect the spark plugs and coils (a multimeter will confirm this).

Stop throwing parts at it, if you dey Lagos - carry that motor track Gazzuzz (no worry, offline him dey work Mercedes, you know see that Range Rover wer him wan sell, who you think say bin dey maintain am?)

I hope these are not the spark plugs you put in that Merc?

DreCharles:
Vehicle has been scanned. Will replace with original spark plugs asap. What I want to know is will faulty fuel filter cause it not to rev when throttle is depressed . Note that, if I switch off and start again, throttle will respond

A lot of things can cause your symptoms. Post the DTC you got after scanning, a bad TPS maybe

DreCharles:
Oh really, how much does a new brain box cost and will I be able to get one that will match the car?

Actually the update is, I did a thorough cleaning of the throttle body, replaced spark plugs, changed nozzles and replaced the maf, cleaned the tps with fuel. I went back for scanning and only got cylinder misfires error code, yes the car was still misfiring occasionally, and throttle is still not revving when depressed.


Car hard starts in the morning and rpm will fluctuate for some seconds before normalizing. My mechanic says it's a fuel filter issue. Please advice.

Cc: nurey, kingreign, weyreypey, heavenlybang, eddee

Did you replace with original Bosch or Denso spark plugs? I hope you didn't use those fake NGK. Please scan that vehicle ASAP

PLEASE RECOMMEND ME A MULTIMETER TESTER FOR A W203 2006 MB.
THANK YOU...

Don't you have an electrician already? Any electrician worth his salt must have a multimeter or a semblance of it (screw driver with a bulb attached to a wire ), what exactly do you want to test? Is it battery voltage, or fuse/relay current and resistance?

If it's battery voltage, your Merc can measure it and give you live readings without the need for a multimeter

kingreign:
Ehen, men Dem dey show their colours. I hear say ogbeni Nairaland Admin/Mod Na active participant for that joint.
