I hope one of you can you help this fellow.
Mercedes Benz C250 TD 1999 model, only 52,000 miles, full service record.....
Difficult starting after parked for about hour with heavy diesel fumes under engine hood, caused by worn seals on fuel line system at inlet to diesel filter. After replaced original rubber seals from MB dealer - problem solved - started by the flick of the key, idle smooth like sleeping baby BUT touch the accelerator pedal, EDC warning light comes on - NO accelerator functioning.
This happened miles away from any dealer in the country side of South Africa, to expensive to load and transport to any MB dealer. Swap accelerator control unit (rheostat) with another car - no difference. I urgently need technical support with schematic and values because Mercedes South Africa do not assist with any.... The person working on the car is a retired Electro Technical Engineer. Much appreciated
