Service schedule would need to be reset to cancel indicator light. Your SRS system is faulty. Incase you have an impact, you airbags will not function.

Hi Poster, i guess the car is a mercedes benz!! My question here is that my own car doesnt select gear and once the car starts, it only starts at gear one and will refuse to select. Anyone experience this before??

i had a similar experience with my e class. mine occurred when i replaced the rear wheel shaft. the car was scanned and the error was from the speed sensors. the speed sensors are located at the rear wheels and their job basically is to read the speed at which the wheels are running which will be communicated to the gearbox to select the appropriate gear. in my own case, what the mech did was to clean the speed sensors on the two rear wheels and it worked perfectly thereafter.
your mech should try it and see if it works well. alternatively, you can wait for the gurus to help you out.

i think u should get your car scanned. the codes will most likely give you a clue of the problem and probable solution. trial and error will cost you alot. find a competent benz garage that work wit diagnostic tool, they should be able to help you out of this wahala.

Hello, the car is presently at a benz garage and it was scanned, it worked (selected) for just the test drive and it failed again. Now, the technician says i have to buy a new transmission, please anyone help. I live in PHC and this is really bordering me apart from the inconvenience and the money that is going into this repair!!
