And with your new grimlens.. I would think a volt meter would read juice at the alarm if the battery was good in it.. I'm wondering if a dead alarm battery "couldn't" cause your issues.. Welcome to uncharted waters man..
I think I'll write a new CW song, Bridge Over Uncharted Crossfire Waters
I was just making notes on allthe "scenarios" to repeat on this! Still debating on the repair. The one GOOD thing I learned is that the Mercedes tools WILL read this car per the guy from Enginuity. He said he's done it. The difference is that this car doesn't have quite ALL the same modules as the SLK230!
It's about Miller Time for me. I think I know what my weekend looks like. Still in search ofthe illusive battery abckup
Time to bring a TV out to the garage for by Buckeyes game this weekend!
