Problem resolved. The original gel battery (27 week, 2002) had given its all. Mercedes Road Side Assistance came out, tested battery, found a bad cell. Replaced with standard lead acid and reset systems. No error codes, and all seems well.

From other forums, it seemed the consensus was that a bad battery can make all sorts of havoc for the can connected systems. So, for 199.00 the Road Side Tech has replaced battery, taken the old one, and re set systems. Could have bought battery elsewhere and installed myself, but really the service and convenience easily make this a great deal.

Thanks for everyones input. Amazing that the battery lasted 10 minnesota winters.
