limp mode e 320

HELP! My car can not get out of limp mode.

1994 e320

Recently changed; Mass Air Sensor, Engine wiring harness, checked computer-ok, knock sensor, cam sensor, and still the car is in limp mode.

Error code 17 (communication fault)

Greatly Appreciated,

Steve

After you get code 17 ,wait 2 secs and hold button 8/9 secs. to clear the memory. Turn key off for 10 secs , on for 90 secs and start

Than you have to go to pin 14 on the diagnostic box. Get the EA/CC code there and then clear it, same as you do with the Diagnostic built-in one , but with this tool.
