2002 Mercedes E270 with brake message - Any ideas?

[Frankieola 22]

Recently taken one of these in as a part exchange and considering keeping it as a smoker, Its got the dreaded error message from the SBC unit though.

Anyone had any experience of getting the error message removed, reset, or a place to locate a replacement unit? Forums suggest that it can be reset, my local Merc specialist chap suggested going to main dealer and seeing if there is any goodwill available. Not sure about this though as it hasn't got any history.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, even if you think the best thing to do would be to get rid and throw it n the ring!

Hi, what does the message say ???

Hi,

we had one of these a while ago the warning message flashes up after so many thousand pushes on the brake pedal. We got a guy to come round and reprogramme it rather than a very expensive replacement of the abs unit. Of the top of my head was a couple hundred quid but there are plenty of people who can do it. Silly design I must say.

Brake fluid level ok ?

Not leaking from any lines or callipers?

You really need the codes read to be honest

What's the fault code, firstly you need to know what fault code you have?

Counters on brake pedal can only be reset if it hasn't been done before most indys shy away from this generation of E class when it comes to brake assist visit workshop messages and unsurprisingly so as a real pain in tits.

The error code we have got when we put it on the diagnostic was C2495

I'm none the wiser and would appreciate anyones help!

Cheers.

C2495: low voltage supply from SBC.

SBC battery possibly low or system requires replacement
