Thanks for the additional info Doc.
The facts: leading up to the dash lights been illuminated like a Xmas tree was that the wife was driving through tons of water during a thunderstorm.
However, I am no rocket scientist and if I interpret 'generic' u mean that only MB diagnostic/code reader machine can provide the test and not a generic diagnostic/code reader machine
and/or there is a specific machine to be plugged into the transmission/traction port - and this port is someone where else in the vehicle other than the port situated under the drivers dashport.
Or is it possible that the generic diagnostic/code reader machines give out diff codes numbers and letters to the Mb
for the exact same problem
In other words if one was to plug the MB diagnostic/code reader one would receive "C 1000"
while a generic diagnostic/code reader machines would give a reading P0500 (vehicle speed sensor A left side)
Forgive Doc but I am confused can you elaborate
Thanks Doc
