yah think your right wonder where would be a good place to get one dealer here wants an arm and a leg almost 700 bucks crazy im in canada

 

www.rockauto.com is the cheapest I think, 140.00us dollars, pm onehundred80, he lives in Canada also, he is the man with the plan the hostess with the mostess the grand poobah of the crossfire forum he's so tight with a dollar his butt squeaks when he walks.😂

 

Oh my bad, you live in the UK right? No matter just plug in to Google search the part number from the RCM it starts with 170 545 0305 and see what you come up with.

 

Or you can type in Mercedes-Benz K40 engine management relay.

 

thanks a bunch great price

 

no from canada

 

ok did one last thing with the module plug in i close number 2 relay with a piece of plastic all lights went out except the bas light spoiler worked so looks like the relay is not working or its not getting power to it have to check power coming to it to be sure right

 

Ala-xfire and pizzaguy are both electrical engineers and have intimate knowledge of the circuitry and how it works But to answer your question yes more than likely the traction control relay has a short on the inside. Seems to be a common problem with these relays.

 

ok just one last thing before i order it found new one for 170 its for the 230 mercedas but same part number i took a test light and i have power to all 5 relays so must be the relay right if power is coming to it and thanks again for all the help

 

You said you called the dealer, was that the Chrysler dealer or the Mercedes Benz dealer? 1705450305 is still a good part number with Mercedes-Benz and it's a lot cheaper, call your local Benz dealer and give them part number but don't tell him it's from a crossfire and see what their price is you may be surprised.

 

That's a big yes to both questions.

 

thanks bud ill keep you updated part will be here about 2 weeks yah customs what can i say the fun of living in canada lol yah i tired mercedes and your right about half the price as chryster still alot cheaper to go state side even with duty

 

Yep I know what you mean I paid 225 dollars from my local Mercedes dealer it was the last one within a hundred miles , I had to have it my daily driver don't you know, popped it in fired it up and it has run like a top ever since.😉
