It doesn’t show a code on my diagnostic computer. The ABS light illuminates along with the failure message.
ABS Computer Repair Help
Can anyone recommend a company that can repair the ABS Control Computer on a 1999 E300?
Part number: 003-431-30-12
I've replaced all four speed sensors and front hubs and the system still fails.
Thanks,
Dave

It was just in a good shop and they decided that the ABS Controller was at fault. The MB dealerships won’t touch it since my car too old. So now I’m left with sending the ABS Controller off. I’ve plugged my Snap On diagnostic computer into the 38 pin plug and could not access any ABS codes. My diagnosis computer is a good 15 years old, though. I’ve talked to several companies who repair automotive components computers and they won’t work on something this old. Unfortunately these cars are becoming so old that fewer and fewer people want to work on them.

I disconnected a speed sensor and when the car was turned on, the ABS fault occurred immediately. With the sensor plugged in, there are no faults until the vehicle starts moving. Then the ABS light illuminates and the ABS, Traction and BAS failures show up on the display.
This car has 723,952 miles on it.
Maybe there is a shop in the Dallas, Texas area that has the ability to scan for failure codes. None of the Dealerships will touch it. I bought this car new and it hasn’t been flooded or wrecked. The ABS failure just popped up one day.
Are they a shop in Dallas?
