I believe the W210 CDI uses the DAS3 system for start/drive authorization, if the above link is correct the EIS passes data about the rolling code to the ECM where it's validated and a start is authorized. This apparently happens over the CAN so I'd make sure there is power/ground to the EDC control unit.
Without access to Star diagnostic level tools I think this is about all you can do, with Star tools you could go in and see the authorization status of the ECM and if the CAN is active. Not worth the trouble if its just a engine donor that will be mechanically controlled.
What is the history of the W210? DId you buy it as a non-runner for the engine swap project? |
Also - do you know if the pre-glow has anything to do with the EIS authentication? I.E it won't even allow pre-glow if Authentication is not confirmed?
I ask because I am not getting a glow light on dash BUT I do get a solenoid click intermittently from what I suspect is the shutoff valve. I need to get someone to turn the key while I am under the hood.
