Mercedes builds some of the most advanced vehicles on the road. To keep everything running smoothly, Mercedes' onboard computers monitor hundreds of individual systems, sensors and variables and make corrections as necessary to optimize performance, shifting, braking, traction, stability, safety and other vehicle parameters. When anything goes wrong, your Mercedes registers the error or deviation and produces a fault code.
Fault codes happening within your Mercedes trigger dash lights (such as ‘Check Engine,' ‘Brake' or ‘Temperature'), but this often isn't enough information for the average Mercedes owner to properly diagnose the cause of the problem.
You should always take these warning lights on your dash seriously and immediately bring your car or sprinter to a Mercedes specialist repair shop such as Burdi Motorworks here in Chicago whenever a warning light comes on. In some cases, there might be a simple fix (such as correcting a low fluid level, tightening your gas cap or cleaning a sensor), while in other cases your Mercedes may require additional service or repairs.
What is a Fault Code?
A fault code, or Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) are system code errors that tell your Mercedes what is malfunctioning.
In newer Mercedes models, the fault code will trigger a dash light or error message, alerting you to get your Mercedes inspected and diagnosed.

Common Mercedes Error Messages – Explained:
Mercedes Fault Code: P261F71
| Fault Code Meaning: | The output for circulation pump has a malfunction. Actuator is blocked. |
| Known Problem Of: | Mercedes Sprinter Vans |
| Likely Causes: | Coolant intrusion into vacuum system via the water pump. |
| What's Happening?: | On model OM651 4 Cylinder Diesel Engine the coolant water pump is vacuum actuated. The internal seal in the waterpump gives way and allows coolant (antifreeze) to enter the vacuum system. The vacuum system operates with the engine running. As the vehicle is driven the vacuum is so powerful it pulls coolant (antifreeeze) deeper into the vacuum system causing havoc on the entire vacuum system. |
| Possible Symptoms You May Experience | - Check Engine Light
- Little to no acceleration
- Coolant leak
- Brake Pedal Pressure
- Engine overheating
|
| Parts That Could Need Replacement: | - Water Pump
- Coolant
- Seals
- Tubes
- Hoses
- Vacuum Actuators
- Vacuum Pump
|
| System(s) Affected: | - Engine
- Cooling System
- Vacuum System
- Turbocharging
- Brake System
|
| Severity: | Can be very severe if left unfixed
Repair requires MASTER LEVEL Technician and not something for the DIYer |
Mercedes Fault Code: P126A00
OM642 Engine oil cooler leak
| Fault Code Meaning: | Intake Port Shutoff Actuator is faulty. |
| Known Problem Of: | Mercedes Sprinter Vans |
| Likely Causes: | Failure of component: intake manifolds, or the intake manifold actuator motor. |
| What's Happening?: | Over time (several thousand miles) 50-100k miles the inside of the intake manifolds get clogged with EGR soot, buildup causing the intake swirl flaps to stick. The sticking or binding of these flaps then binds the motor which causes the check engine light and or a sever loss of acceleration. |

Bring Your Car to Burdi to Get Your Mercedes Diagnosed, Today
Thanks to the error codes recorded by your onboard computer, our trained technicians can quickly determine what is wrong. When you bring your vehicle to us, we start by hooking our diagnostic equipment up to your ODB-II port and reading all registered error codes. While all automakers use a common language for error codes, each one has specific definitions.
That's where our experience with Mercedes Benz vehicles and our advanced diagnostics equipment is critical. Our experienced technicians can read all of your error codes (both current and previous) and plan the necessary service to get your Mercedes running perfectly again. We can also reset error codes and see if they come on again, which can be a sign that a temporary problem has been fixed (such as low oil, bad gas or dirty sensors) or that a problem is intermittent and appears again after a short time.
All of this error code information points us to the root cause of your Mercedes issues and guides us to the right repairs. We only do what is necessary and always get your approval before starting service. This is how we've built our reputation as a leader in Mercedes Benz maintenance, repair and service in the Chicago area. We invite you to visit our facility in Schiller Park to talk to us in person. You can also contact us online or by phone to schedule a service appointment.
Our experienced team will do what it takes to get your Mercedes or Sprinter back where it belongs: on the road! We've listed all of the Mercedes fault codes and their explanations to help you understand what's going on with your vehicle if you have your own scanner and want to learn more about Mercedes fault codes.
