Hi,

I have a 1993 500sel with M119 engine, my car has 6 brinks on the Diagnostic Module (N59). Do you know where I can get the codes information?

Thanks in advance!

. . the start of an ETA going bad. 6 "blinks" = "Idle speed faulty". The DTCs are read from MENU #6 from the Diag Module. Read MENU#24 re the ETA.

To reset the CEL use the method in MENU#2.

Thanks for your help.

I am also thinking the ETA may be bad, but I want to check the Electronic Acceleration Module for codes. The ETA is expensive, I need to make sure it is bad. I do not have any CEL or ASR lights ON, but my exterior warning light is on???

If ETA is bad, what codes will I get ?

The EA module is no pinic either: about $1500.

Read MENU#24 for ETA codes.. . it's all there.

After further testing, my car has the following codes. Can this fault cause my car to have low power and sometime erratic idle? No CEL light and No ASR light.

Here are the codes:

1. DTC with code 6.
2. EA with code 9---Left rear axle vehicle speed sensor (L6/3) from ABS/ASR
control module (N30/1)

Please help!

The #6 in the Diag Module is "Idle Speed Faulty" as it was before. So nothing has changed.

The DTC in the EA is referring you to the wheel sensors. Sounds like a good place to start??

You might want to look over Menu#9 for the EA module. It takes inputs from everything in the car except for the ash-trays!
