Hi,

I am hoping to find some clues to this in a 2001 E240 (Bizarre 2.6 model).

It drives fine, then randomly stalls. The engine fan cuts in, the engine temperature sensor drops to read zero and ABS/ESP warnings come on. The engine will not start.

This stays as the case for a few minutes. Then, the fan cuts out, the dash goes back to normal and it drives OK.

The engine temperature remains normal (it's not overheating), and there are NO faults stored in the computer.


Weird? you bet.


I Could only guess at the crank position sensor, but with the other issues I'm not so sure. Is there an engine temperature sensor capable of causing this?


thanks

Russell
