Hi Guest !
Welcome to the 500Eboard forum.
Since its founding in late 2008, 500Eboard has become the leading resource on the Internet for all things related to the Mercedes-Benz 500E and E500. In recent years, we have also expanded to include the 400E and E420 models, which are directly related to the 500E/E500.
We invite you to browse and take advantage of the information and resources here on the site. If you find helpful information, please register for full membership, and you'll find even more resources available. Feel free to ask questions, and make liberal use of the "Search" function to find answers.
We hope you will become an active contributor to the community!
Sincerely,
500Eboard Management

Make sure you have a good and decently charged battery. Turn the key to the run position, but don't crank or start the engine. Leave the key on for at least 90 seconds. That's it. If you have the hood open and you are listening, you will probably hear the calibration take place at some point in time during that 90 second period, usually fairly early into the process. You'll hear a little change in the character of the buzzing noise emitting from the actuator, followed by at least one, and on rare occasions, two distinct metallic "clack" sounds as a the mechanical end stops of the throttle plate are "learned" by the control unit...
