    Relatively simple problem to sort out in the end. The extra checks and diagnostics you do to triple confirm everything else is OK is great. Good stuff

    8000 is open circuit. Just like 255kmh on an open circuit abs sensor. If it were the reluctor it would have shown zero. Good fix 👍

    The white circle on the conductor plate is oil level sensor, there should be an option to check level with star diagnosis. The normal values in ohm for the solenoids should be from 3.5 to 5 ohms, anything lower than 3.5 is a bad solenoid.
    The gearbox service kit should have the filler neck cap included.
    The plugs are notoriously know for leakage, if they are not changed at least once in 2-3 years, they leak oil and from the plug oil can get to the gearbox control unit(under passenger footwell) through the wires and damage the unit like in my case.

    Hello, good afternoon, how are you? Excuse me, but when changing the solenoid plate, don't you need to program or load any software? Thank you for your attention, best regards.

    • @LMAutoRepairs
      @LMAutoRepairs  3 месяца назад

      No...
      It is a straightforward replacement...
      The plate just serves as a connection between the solenoids and sensors between the gearbox and the TCM controller....

    Hi, I adore you tidy workshop. Good job and Mercedes guys aren't happy again :) as they can't charge £150 /h x as many hours as they would do it. I have Important question ? Do you need to code gearbox after changing this plate in the gearbox ? as I got some Mercedes dealer ( my town Merc guys ) info that it must be coded but they want to change whole unit / £ 1100 which includes this electronic plate ( part no. A140270116180 ). I can get this plate ( original part no. A140270116180 ) from other Mercedes guys ( as my town Merc guys won't sell me part only ) but they said probably will need coding as it's electronic part. And again pain in the as... as my town Merc guys said : we won't code if we won't do the job ourselves. I'm Car mechanic btw

      @@LMAutoRepairs it sounds like my town Merc guys are trying to take the Mickey when refusing selling part only, try to sell this part only incl. bigger part, add coding, will be new Oil etc. even if mine is brand new, looks like £2k bill. I can get original new ( refurbished as they will send my old part to Merc ) for £260 ( when return my old part worth £ 40 for them ). Welcome to Merc World :) they hope you got deep pockets

      @@LMAutoRepairs yes, I know I can :) save a little bit, however my experience tells me to buy Mercedes plate ( from Merc guys they give 2 years warranty ) as just £ 100 difference ( other brand plate is ca £ 150 ) isn't worth hassle ( for me ) if things could go wrong. Filter with gasket ( I use Febi ) it's ca £ 12. Oil only original from Mercedes. I use engine oils Motul from Ebay, but had bad experience with gearbox Oil ( Motul from Ebay ) as it supposed to be red but it was clear ( not right oil for this gearbox ), it looks like fake or.... fak up at the factory
