1994 E320 Diagnostic LED Trouble
Hi to all. My CE light is on. I looked under the hood to get the codes from the LED diagnostic box and am having some trouble.
I tried to get the codes with the ignition in the on position. When I pushed the button in the first time I got nothing. When I pushed in the button and held down briefly the LED would light up and stay on. When I released the button the LED went off. No blinks. Nothing. I cranked the car and repeated the process and same results. I tried with the car off. When I pushed in the button you could hear a little click, the LED did not light up. I then turned the car back on, not cranked, and figured I would try to reset the CE light. I held down the button for app. 10 secs. I then turned the car off and then on again and the light stayed on. What am I doing wrong? Any help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance ![]() |

Thanks for the info. Will try again in the am. Fingers crossed.

yeah, but what's the car doing wrong that you can sense? Is it acting up?
I don't trust these warning codes; if you don't see/feel something wrong first...myself that is....I always take the position of 'thank you' telltale lights but I never put my complete trust in these tattletale lights...both on my Mercedes and BMW...good to know but not always completly accurate... |

Here is a fault code list that I got from somewhere about a year ago, and I'm pretty sure this applies to the 320 you have.
Display Diagnostic Code 1. turn-engine off; 2. turn ignition switch to #2 position (do not start car); 3. depress switch (at diagnostic port) for 1-second, then release; 4. count number of LED blinks before going to solid/always on; 5. depress switch again to see if there are any other faults in memory (faults are displayed in descending order, and if there are no other faults in memory, the first fault number should re-appear); 6. record the number of blinks you counted for history; Erasing/Resetting Check Engine Light within 20-seconds of LED going to solid/always on, 1. depress switch for 6-10 seconds, release; 2. LED should blink ONCE then go to solid/always on; 3. turn ignition switch off; 4. restart car and verify that Check Engine Light is OFF (assuming you have CORRECTED the problem). Here are the error codes. Count the blinks after pressing the diagnostic button for 1 sec. 1. No Malfunctions; 2. Full load contact, throttle valve switch implausible; 3. Coolant temp. read by CIS-E implausible; 4. Potentiometer voltage implausible; 5. O2-sensor signal implausible; 6. Not Used; 7. TNA-signal (RPM-signal) read by CIS-E implausible; 8. Altitude pressure signal from EZL control unit implausible; 9. Current to EHA is implausible; 10. Idle contact, throttle valve switch implausible; 11. Air Injection System; 12. Absolute pressure values from EZL is implausible; 13. Intake air temp. reading is implausible; 14. Speed signal read by CIS-E is implausible; 15. Not Used; 16. EGR 17. O2-sensor line shorted positive to ground; 18. Current to idle speed air valve is implausible; 19. Not Used; 20. Not Used; 21. Not Used; 22. O2-sensor heating current implausible; 23. Short circuit to positive in purge switchover valve circuit; 24. Not Used; 25. Short circuit to positive in start valve circuit; 26. Short circuit to positive in shift point delay circuit; 27. Data exchange between CIS-E unit & EZL unit interrupted; 28. Intermittant contact in coolant temp. sensor circuit; 29. Difference in coolant temp. read between CIS-E unit & EZL unit; 30. Not Used; 31. Intermittant contact in intake air temp. sensor; 32. Not Used; 33. Not Used; 34. Coolant temp. from EZL unit is implausible. |

>> Does not apply...he has HFM/SFI with DIS Ign, not EZL systems.

Thanks again for all the info.
I tried again today and did it right and pulled a code 4, which is the MAF sensor from a chart I found over at benzworld.org. I'll post the codes below for anyone else who has an E320 that needs these for diagnosis. Thanks to jayare over there for the info. And thanks to you Arthur for your input. I always look to your posts as they are spot on and helpful. Here are the codes (all of them): Emissions - Using Built-in Diagnostic Module 1 No Fault Found 2 Heated oxygen sensor faulty 3 Lambda control faulty 4 Air injection system faulty hot film mass air flow sensor with hot wire 5 Exhaust gas recirculation faulty 6 Idle speed control faulty 7 Ignition system faulty 8 Engine coolant temperature sensor open circuit 9 Intake air temperature sensor, open circuit 10 Voltage at mass air sensor too high/low 11 Tn-signal (rpm signal ) at engine control module faulty 12 Heated oxygen sensor heater circuit open or circuit short 15 Injector, cylinder 2 16 Closed throttle position information faulty 17 Data exchange malfunction between individual control module 18 Adjustable camshaft timing solenoid circuit open or circuit short 19 Injectors circuit open or circuit short emission control module adaptation in engine control module at limit 20 Vehicle speed signal not present 21 Purge switchover valve circuit open or circuit short 22 Crankshaft position sensor signal faulty 23 Intake manifold pressure (in base module pressure sensor-) with engine running too high/low. 24 Starter ring gear segments and /or crankshaft position sensor faulty 25 Knock sensors or engine control module faulty 26 Upshift delay faulty 27 Not used 28 Engine coolant temperature sensor (engine coolant temperature change monitor ) 44 Not used 45 Fuel safety shut-off electronic accelerator or cruise control active 46 Resonance intake manifold switchover valve 47 Not used 48 Not used 49 Voltage supply at engine control module 8v 50 Engine control module _________ PIN 8 ECU 1 No fault found 2 Engine Coolant temperature sensor 3 Intake air temperature sensor 4 Hot film mass air flow sensor 5 CTP switch 6 Not used 7 Not used 8 Idle speed control (ISC) system at upper or lower control stop or CC or EA indicates "limp home" mode. 9 O2S 1 (before TWC) - voltage too high, circuit open or voltage implausible 10 O2S 2 (after TWC)voltage too high, circuit open or voltage implausible 11 O2S 1 heater (before TWC) - Current too high/low or short circuit. 12 O2S 2 heater (after TWC) - Current too high/low or short circuit. 13 O2S (Lambda) control system operating at rich or lean limit 14 Injector, cylinder 1 15 Injector, cylinder 2 16 Injector, cylinder 3 17 Injector, cylinder 4 18 Injector, cylinder 5 19 Injector, cylinder 6 20 Self-adaptation at idle speed or upper/lower partial load at rich or lean limit 21 Ignition output 3 or ignition coil for cylinder 1 and 6 22 Ignition output 1 or ignition coil for cylinder 2 and 5 (Engine 111, cylinder 1 and 4) 23 Ignition output 2 or ignition coil for cylinder 3 and 4 (Engine 111, cylinder 2 and 3) 24 CKP sensor or magnet for position sensor not recognized 25 CMP sensor not recognized or implausible 26 Not used 27 TN-signal (rpm signal ) - open or short to ground 28 VSS - open circuit 29 Not used 30 Fuel pump relay module - open or short circuit 31 Not used 32 Knock sensors 1 and /or 2 33 Maximum retard setting on at least one cylinder has been reached or the ignition angle deviation between the individual cylinders is greater than 6 degrees crankshaft angle 34 Knock control-output switch in engine control module faulty Momentary fault in self-adaptation closed throttle speed/partial load 35 Model 124,129 and 140 AIR pump switchover valve and/or electromagnetic AIR pump clutch.

We have those codes here,[ that's where they got them from].. but your problem is more likely the AIR system.
On that chassis , the vac hose that feeds the AIR SOV valve [ under the front engine cover] is plastic and they crack from heat fatique..I would look there first. The ECU looks for a lean mix from the 02 sensor to test AIR system.... so it is Failing that self-test. E320 16 PIN DTC Charts inc. pin 8, pin 14 What you want now is the real codes from the Engine Mangemant modules. You have only accessed the Emmissions N/59 module.
