Any code or issue with the traction system will cause all of those problems.
Have the traction system scanned by MB shop with MB scanner.

ETS traction code C1210 = issue with brake fluid level switch.
ETS traction code C1000 = traction system computer failure. Most likely your problem.

If you erase those codes & then drive, do the codes come back?
If so only wiring or a defective part can cause those codes.

Is a odbII a good enough scanner to get these codes out?

Nope, requires a MB scanner.

Well the tranny connector was full of oil, since been changed, could that affect those codes?

No, those codes are only from the traction system computer.
