Code readout

[Norseman]

Hi.
Is it necessary to go to a MB shop to have error codes read out? or could I do it myself with a laptop?? (1999 E-220 CDI)

Will it require some special software or what?

You can do it yourself but you will need to purchase the software and the OBD11 connector.

Go here for an example....http://www.peachparts.com/ottoscan/ottoscan.htm

this is a PALM software that mercedeshop promotes.
