Xhorse VVDI2 users , free EDC17 and MEV17 authorization

Today, I read a post on DK forum entitled ” VVDI2 users , free EDC17 and MEV17 authorization”, and some users provide serial number public for authorization.

 

Actually the free EDC17 and MEV17 authorization is limited, to get one extra Xhorse Condor mini key cutting machine, Xhorse VVDI2 could active all of these function for free: including OBD read MED17/EDC17 PIN / CS / MAC, calculate OBD data online, calculate EEPROM / FLASH for PIN/MAC/CS.

or use remote points to exchange PIN/MAC/CS. PIN/MAC/CS is: if you use Xhorse remote/key and add to car, every key will give you points.

2003 CL600 with P0120, ESP, Distronic errors, fixed by mb sdconnect

Problem description:

2003 CL600 throwing P0120 (throttle position sensor); dash display reads ESP and Distronic errors (white, not red); check engine light is intermittent, and car is in limp mode. Have replaced throttle pedal assembly, passenger coil pack (found a cracked coil), and plugs. Found oil around some of the plugs, and at 39K mi they looked like they had 139K miles on them…ugly. Also spotted a vac hose with a hole, and had a cracked nipple on the air sensor closest to the throttle body.

Car also idles rough occasionally…have checked fuses and relays for all the above-named suspects…even going under rear seat on driver’s side. I’m confused because the idle makes me think the issue is mechanical in nature…but the car behaves differently when my OBDII scanner is connected.

Tool to use and how to do:

you have to get a Xentry DAS
without that you will spend money scanning with these idiots at MB dealer garage
and probably never find

just get a MB SD C4 sdconnect (C5 is not confirmed as real yet)
from any Chinese shop, recommend you http://www.obdii.net with a nice salesperson and after-sales service.

get yourself a dell D630
go to specialized software sites like MHH AUTO, CarTechnoloGY ect
then download a all ready Acronis image of a Xentry 2015 version or 2014 or what you want
clone the image to your laptop’s SSD
there you go
all for free
or ready Dell D630 drive with your C4 package
or a whole ready D630 laptop with your package

Launch x431 easydiag plus fix 2007 E550 4matic errors on ESP ABS SRS speedtronic

2007 E550 4matic has lots errors on ESP ABS SRS speedtronic etc. Which diagnostic tool to use and how to troubleshoot? Go on reading below parts.

Car model and year:

2007 E550 4matic

Errors:

Over the last few weeks I’ve been getting a random “esp inoperative” warning. It doesn’t come on every time I drive the car and it’s usually off after restart.

Last night, I got a “right side low beam out”. Car has an aftermarket hid kit that’s been installed for about a year or so. I replaced the ballast with a spare this morning and it worked.

Took a 300 mile trip today. After about 150 miles the esp inop message popped up. Didn’t think much of it. Drove another hour and got a warning that the right side low beam was out again. Shortly after I stopped for gas and upon restarting car, I got all kinds of errors. Esp, abs, srs, speedtronic, etc.

I turned the car off and went inside the store at the gas station. When I got back in the car, it wouldn’t start. Nothing happened when turning key. No crank etc. after 5-10 mins it did start. I headed back on the road, and noticed it wasn’t shifting right. From a stop it was revving a lot to get going. All the warning lights were still on, the speedometer needle was bouncing around and the nav was (and still) stuck about 50 miles back from where I am now. Once on the highway it ran fine.

I was able to get my bt obd2 scanner and torque working at one point but it no longer does. It showed 14 codes at that time but I wasn’t able to jot them down.

At this point, the car is home. It starts every time but all the same warnings flash and as soon as it starts, the cooling fan is on full blast and won’t go off. At one point I also got a red battery icon. The battery is about 6 months old. It’s an AGM from advanced auto. I’ve since put it on a charger and fully charged it and all the same issues persist.

I thought this was an alternator or voltage regulator but since it’s charged now and having the same problem I’m not sure. Maybe an ecu issue but hoping someone has some ideas on how to proceed before towing to dealer.

Diagnostic tool to use:

Option 1: Launch x431 easydiag plus 2.0

Option 2: MB Star diagnostic tool

Guide / Experience:

Check the voltage when the car is running. You can switch to the voltage display by switching the cluster to temperature and then hitting the odometer reset button three times with the ignition on, but without the engine running. Then once you start it, it should tell you the voltage. All those errors sound like a low voltage problem. You also have a battery control module. Search the old threads about that one. Usually voltage problems are either alternator, voltage regulator or battery control module. Your esp inoperative is a separate problem. Probably the steering angle sensor. If you search the threads you’ll find that too, there’s also a youtube video on how to replace it. You should get a real scanner that can do MB codes. I like to use a cheap Launch  x431 easydiag plus 2.0.

Make sure you get the plus version which comes with software for 2 vehicle manufacturer, there are cheaper versions, but it doesn’t come with the 2 free vehicle manufacturer software and it’s another $50 to add a vehicle manufacturer. Worked to tell me I had a bad steering angle sensor (it can also be a few other things like a wheel speed sensor, brake light switch or yaw sensor).

Finally:

Car ended up going to the dealer. They’re telling me the central gateway is/was wet and showing signs of corrosion and requires replacing. Will be a few days before that’s done. They don’t know if that is everything it will need at this point but they tell me they can’t diagnose further until that is replaced.. Looking at about $850 for this repair.

It went there for diagnostic since my friends shop was unable to read from OBD with snap-on (normally he can). Dealer was unable to connect with MB Star SD C4 . When they told me it was the CG, I decided to let them do this repair. If they’d told me it was an alternator and voltage regulator, I’d have had them replaced elsewhere or done it myself. When I brought it to the dealer, I was certain that replacing either of those items wasn’t going to restore all the cars systems or dash readouts or OBD. My guess was a bad alt or VR took out the ECU.
