P0170 Air Mass Meter Question
Hello, My wife's 1997 C280 MIL has come on with code P0170 only. The car has 150K miles on it and we are the original owners. I went for a ride and logged the long term fuel trim with the MIL on 1.32% and off 1.32% A few days later the MIL came on again. I have searched this forum as well as the internet for a troubleshooting procedure specifically for the AMM. What is the common mode of failure for the AMM, is it a wide open condition or a drift outside of the normal operating range? There should be an acceptable range of resistance values or frequencies at a given RPM/Load/Temp/Humidity for this device. Does anyone have the pinout descrition for the connector? In a second note I have seen the AMM for this car range in price from $169(Ebay, manufactured in the same plant as the MB but not labeled MB) to $474 (dealer, definetly labeled MB), has anyone bought one from ebay with good results? Thanks for your help!
