Hello There,


Raf here, 1999 SLK230-Silver, 138K or so... just did a head gasket replacement along with #4 Exhaust Valve replacement (bent while testing due to being off on Timing).


New issue SRS light - while fixing/texting the turn-signal, re-connected battery, but forgot to connect Air Bag, consequently, SRS Light has been on since then.... got the Autel Scanner MAX, but it does not connect to the Control Module... Tried updating the software, still did not connect.... I am thinking the Control Module is bad.... Any ideas/ suggestion greatly welcome - Thanks!

Sorry, I'm not familiar with that scanner, are you sure it's capable of erasing SRS faults on the r170 ?

SRS Scanner

Welcome from Madrid...


Sorry, I'm not familiar with that scanner, are you sure it's capable of erasing SRS faults on the r170 ?

yes, I think so, it is the Autel MaxiCheck Airbag/ABS Scanner and its Vehicle Coverage is:

GM, CHRYSLER, FORD, AUDI, ABARTH, ALFA, BENZ, BMW, BENTLEY, BUGATTI, CITROEN, DACIA, EU FORD, FIAT, JAGUAR, LANDROVER, LANCIA, MINI, MAYBACH, OPEL, PEUGEOT, PORSCHE, RENAULT, SAAB, SMART, SEAT, SKODA, SPRINTER, VW, VAUXHALL, VOLVO, AU FORD, HOLDEN, ACURA, DAEWOO, HONDA, HYUNDAI, ISUZU, INFINITI, KIA, LEXUS, MAZDA, MITSUBISHI, NISSAN, SCION, SUBARU, SUZUKI, TOYOTA
and the SRS/ABS Module does try to connect to the ABS/SRS Control Module, but it can't establish COMMs... I thing my CM is bad... No surprises here... Thanks...
