U got a nu conductor plate & didnt work. Next u get a used ML350 conductor plate & it works. So nu 1 is faulty?? Also thx 4 heads up on matching part # on TCU. I didn't do that on mine

The 13 pin harness wire plug is only cliped not soldered i have tested 8 from old wrecked 1998 to 2002 ml320 found 1 ok rest had 1 to 2 wires loose thats was my problem i rewired on my 1998 ml320 and all ok now but was a nightmare to find

Where do you get your parts from , I have a mercedes ml 320 w163 .

this is an issue that i currently have. On mine this control unit in the middle is under the sunroof of course so when it rains )i have a leak in my sunroof that needs fixed) it shorts out my windows. We had some rain here a while ago and now my windows are stuck, but they are up thank goodness... the only thing is that my side view mirrors are stuck in the folded in position. Thinking about it is just driving me insane.

Fantastic series! Loved every minute of it. Thank you for bringing this pearl back to life!

Great video Bro!!!!

awesome video. Did you complete the restoration of the C36?

I have the same issue valve body,transmission plate,soleinod all have replace but still in limp mood n when change to D n R the car jerking......please help me

I have 2003 ML320 Sport 143K Miles on it, but my friend I tiered ESP key also it comes-up but still in Limp Mode, also the Conductor Plate issue for Mercedes on OBDII code is P0715. My car had the same problem leaking fluid tru the Transmission connector to TCM module-- I cant believe such a stupid so called German design liquid going upward against Newton's law of universal Gravitation.. LOL the insulation material sucks the OIL and releases it in the TCM .. what the F.. really! Anyhow the code was P0715 which means "Speed Sensor Magnets" on Conductor plate failed, I changed the plate, basically went thru hell in my small garage with limited space and tools and finally did it.. But got real pissed that still was in Limp Mode,,. To begin with I first changed Connector to New One to the Transmission where the Tr-OIL Leak starts, then I cleaned the TCM, tried it still in Limp Mode. Changed TCM with the one bought from Junk-yard but it gave me an error and Limp Mode again plus OBDII said the "Gear Ratio Error" which programmed in junkyard TCM so it had different gear ratio. BTW: I electrically measured and checked the Transmission Oil and it IS NOT a Conductive Liquid OIL which means it does not damage the TCM electronically, to make sure I cleaned and tried my original TCM and worked fine but still in Limp Mode. I bought the Brand New Original "Mercedes ML320 Conductor Plate" for $220 from NAPA store. Anyone can help out there?

You said that you turn the key and "Pressed the Button Winter or Sport on the side" and found out Limp mode works or Not? Where is that button? can you tell the name? Is it one of the Dash to the right side if the Key Buttons like ESP??

Good thing they had a Hummer to pull out the jeeps

You do know the rear seats fold forward for more gear lots of room all the other truck did work smart

Thank you that plug is my problem its leaking and ots been acting wacky lights flickering on the dash and wont start so im gonna take the plug out replace with a new one and hopefully thatll fix the problem 🙂🤞

To catch all the oil. Get a plastic tray that's over sized to the pan. Catches all the oil when you drop the pan and place the pan in the plastic tray.

Was the Benz a 4matic or just rwd?

actually if you realize, your video did not really give an accurate solution to the limp mode problem. You just bought another transmission and your limp mode was gone! So are you saying the problem is the whole transmission???

so your video is suggesting to change the whole transmission???!!😣

In my case I did the required job changing the conductor plate brand new and all the solendoids brand new but yet the car is still in limp mode!!! Any suggestions? 😧

I was able to finally a get a First Gen Volt, a 2013 one with 63,000 miles on it in late December 2023...right before the temps here in Minnesota dropped off the face of the Earth. I Remote Started it in temps as low as -10 and it started right up. I live in an apartment so I can't keep it plugged in all the time but there's a public charger less than a mile away that's dirt-cheap to use (I could fully charge it for less than a dollar). It will show 'Propulsion Power Reduced' for a few minutes after I start it if it's cold enough but that goes away once the battery warms up and the more charged the battery is the less likely that will happen. Update: A couple of weeks after I got it I discovered that the tires were in need of replacement due to age so I had some Bridgestone Weatherpeak tires put on. They're 70,000 mile rated touring tires....that are rated for Severe Snow Service. Since I've had them I have never had the Traction Control so much as come on once.

Hi luke, I bought a 2000 E320 W210 wagon that had a bad transmission conductor plate. the guy i bought it from had messed with it and it was bad. I replaced the transmission with a transmission from a car I had been driving that works perfect. I put the transmission in place of the bad transmission but it is in limp mode. I know the transmission I put in it is good and now I am stumped? Where are the transmission codes logged? The transmission computer or the car ecm? Thank you patrick!

Thanks I've got a valve body and adapter plug, and filter. Drained the transmission, replaced everything. The code Po700 was gone, But now I have codes of Po743/Po763/Po753. Torque converter clutch and Shift solenoid C and shift solenoid A. I'm only getting reverse at this point. No Drive, 1,2,3, . I've check the transmission fluid and still only reverse. The car has 140 k miles and to my knowledge it the first transmission change. It was very dirt, with particles in the filter. It's the third flush and I'm at wits end. 1/1/24

How much electricity is being used plugged in overnight?

I have a MERCEDES CLK W 208 200 192 hp and she is like she just came out of the Factory.MERCEDES is not TOYOTA or HYUNDAY.If you want to keep this car you must pay.You must use original or at least new spare parts.These kind of repairs are for TOYOTAs.If you do not want to pay you do not buy a MERCEDES and specially an old one.

loved this part.1 video. love the C36 too

Great video - thanks for posting and i'm sure it will help me with my limp mode 🙂

90% of the time it is the conductor plate, not the sensors! I went to a junk yard removed a conductor plate. Had the vin wiped, and programed for my vin number. I replaced tranny filter, tranny pan gasket, tranny pan aluminum screws, new synthetic tranny oil. I have a running and driving car!

I bought a GAP tool. Makes LR ownership much easier.

I like u'r teaching may our God bless you

So, after changing the relays, did it operate totally normally? In your video, I can hear your hour meter clicking, and mine is doing the exact same thing. Mine was also working fine and then all of a suddenly it wouldn't crank (but only noise is the hour meter). I can bypass start it, but cannot get the blades to engage (it is possible multiple relays went bad randomly, no idea)

i solved my limp mode with a new battery and a reset.

Great ! Video ! Worked great ! With my new replacement!!!!

Hi, I have a c36 but I need to rev it high then it will start to move, looks like it has a leak.. have you come by this in a c36?

Awesome Vid Mate, though you did bang on about the $96 CDN for a while!! I have been struggling with this, new battery, alternator MAF unit, fingers crossed Im off to do it now....

I had my old alternator replaced and I've had not but problems since the new one was put it, my guess was low voltage, so I'm glad this confirms my suspicions, time to get a new alternator I suppose. This video actually just solved a huge mystery for me, thank you so much.

60k miles and its stuck in limp mode?!!

I have a 2002 Ml 2.7 diesel that I have owned for over 7 years. Now the emissions in london will effect the usage of my vehicle but I say to hell with them, I will still use it!

The 4Runner was by far the most impressive. Toyota is no joke.

tokebek?

Never seen those wheels before.

Hate that they miss lead us

Could have taken it to a professional mechanic rather than wasting your time and money

Thank you for the information, when I listen to bunch of those information, I will never buy Mercedes, even German car again. If you have a lot of money, you better poured them into the pacific. why no body talk about it because the car owner like show of and the mechanic can make more money. do you think Japanese car have those crazy problem? No! I have a Mercedes too, anytime I bring it to service, no one know how to repair except the very common problem, and no one will tell you the true, and paid $1000, because the Mechanical worker doesn't know Electronics, the Electronics worker doesn't know Software the Software worker doesn't know Mechanical and Electronics. Right now, all the car repair tech are cheater.

Hello Mr. Luke, this is Martin from Tanzania, can I have your whatsap number or email address, am experiencing the same problem in my mercedes Benz but mine does not give out any error codes in my OBD scanners..could it be the wires in transmission are bad?! Any help please.. I own Mercedes Benz w202, 1999

Thaks a lot!! Indeed, no computer needed to reset!

Plug that diesel tractor and your pickup truck in!

Been trying to get my W210 gearbox fixed, no luck. If technicians that side are failing, then I have no chance here in Africa.

When the snow is crunchy. It’s cold

The code that comes up is p0763

Hey Luke I have a 99 Mercedes Benz clk 320 and I changed the conductor plate because one of the the pins where the electoral plug, plugs into the conductor plate broke and it wouldn't shift out of first gear..... But I put a aftermarket conductor plate in and it still won't shift out of first gear..... Do u have a solution to this problem?

nice videos you rough idle is probably due to the coils not being grounded properly... check that the holes are not stripped or corroded in the alloy valve cover - the bolts that hold coils in place also ground them, if there poor contact it will miss fire... check my C36 project th-cam.com/video/YOKv8_-_SJQ/w-d-xo.html
