Mercedes sprinter EML light flashing. Fixed!

- Engine management light flashing on your sprinter van? Shows code p1955, could be 3 things. Glow plugs, glow plug relay, or throttle body problem, or even a bad gasket on the throttle body housing like mine that’s fits into the inlet manifold. Start with the cheapest. #sprinter #mercedes #engine #fixed
Got the same error as you
MAF and MAP sensor replaced, air filter clean, turbos are new, throttle body clean, just checked this gasket and looks good had a nice seal, all charge pipes looking great don't hear any leaks, expect where this butterfly valve is, letting all the air through maybe and not closing? Engine not engaging the turbos at all, in limp mode.
Running out of ideas
Have you had it on a computer to check what codes?
Please did you get it solve
Did you get the solution of this fault
Hi Steve
Very helpful vid do you know what that part is actually called
I think it's the throttle body, an throttle body elbow but not 100%
Was it easy to remove
@@davidmackintosh3291 yes easy
Hi Steve.. Was your van down on power when the light was flashing before you fixed it?
No was no difference, just an annoying light
hi steve did it permanetley fix the issue? im getting p1955 and p0101 which is glow plug fault code and masss air flow out of range.......... im gonna have a look at this gasket see what it looks like, ive changed the mass air flow, throttle body, map sensor, air filter and it is still flashing, i will kill someone if it ends up being a bleeding gasket!!!! hahaha
Hello have you changed the glow plug relay? Could possibly be that in the end. I’d check gasket first though. I’ve had another sprinter before and that was a relay, this one has been a bit of a headache chasing small problems but touch wood all good now
@@Itssteve90Hi Steve, just a quick one, how do you get the plastic elbow housing out of the engine that goes up into the engine, I've been pulling on it after removing all the bolts, and it seems to be stuck solid.
@@MrSonicPhaze did you remove all 4? There’s 2 at the bottom an 2 at the back on around it, but awkward to get to. Once the bottom is free it should move side to side an just wiggle out
@Itssteve90 yes I removed all 4. I put some real downward force on that elbow with all my body weight and it didn't move an inch. Wiggled it side to side also, just didn't budge. I'm going to go outside again now and give it another go. Also to one of your previous messages I changed the relay and it didn't fix the issue.
@@MrSonicPhaze try spray a bit of WD up Ito where the seal is, try that. Sounds like the seal is ok then if it’s hard work, mine fell out. Had to put a bit of grease on new seal just to push back in as it’s quite hard to push back on, but you’ll know when it does as the holes will line up
