Checked the book and they mention it comes on if battery is below 10 volts. Been on for 3 days. Any advice would be appreciated before I attempt a visit to the dealer. Thanks
The procedure is listed in the owner's manual but you can reset the system by starting the engine, and turning the steering wheel full lock from one side, to full lock on the other side. Try that and see if it goes off; the warning lamp may illuminate if the battery is disconnected.<br> <br> If it doesn't work, you may want to visit your dealer. I'm going to guess that it's your steering angle sensor. I have hear this happen to two owners over the years.
Stop by your dealer if you can, and show it to them. They may be able to squeeze you in. I think that it's likely a switch problem. Mine came on once and then went off after starting (and didn't show up again). They ended up replacing the a switch and no lights since.
I found the my work order when my BAS/ESP lit up<br> They replace two things.<br> Here are the parts #<br> 001-545-31-09 Switch<br> 163-542-06-18 Sender 209947<br> Power brake switch.<br> Try to tell that to your SA.
I left my lights on the other day. i must have been in dream land again. so you know the battery went dead. i charge the battery and got the car running again. i just kept geeting the BAS/ESP lights. i thought i mess up the electric system with the charger and i'll be spending out some money now. but thanks to this site everything is fine now. thanks a million.
The BAS/ESP light turned on in my moms car yesterday. She tried leaving this moring to buy a Christmas tree, but the car doesn't even go into gear. Are two related?
With you symptoms its the brake switch even if the brake lights come on. The switch can fail in many ways and does not always fail in all modes. This switch does lots of things and sometimes not all fail.

I agree. I've had this a few times with my E, my 320 and my 500. Sometimes is the ABS/ESP/BAS, sometimes not the ESP and sometimes not the ABS. In some cases it'll lock the tranny shifter. In any case the solution was either a faulty brake switch, steering sensor, the ABS cntrl unit, and, believe it or not, at one time they had to replace the trip computer - this was the one that involved the tranny lock on my 50 500.
Dears, I need help pls. I have Mercedes Benz E430 2001. I am facing a problem since I removed the middle mufflers. The problem is once I step hard on the speed accelerator , the RPM will move till it reaches 3 and can't go further and then the ESP light goes on asking me to visit the nearest workshop!!!
but once i restart the engine everything back to normal.
Can anyone tell me what is the problem and does it have anything to do with the Muffler??

I resolved the problem of BAS/ESP warning light for my ML430 yr 2001 by inflating all 4 tires to manufacture spect. of 32psi using digital gauge.... good luck
