I have am '02 S430 and got the code P0715 for the input/turbine speed sensor. I am trying to find the part to purchase and where it is located. Everything I am seeing though is telling me to replace the conductor plate. I am stuck in a hard limp mode, can only go about 30-35 miles and hour. CAn someone please help direct me in the right direction with what needs to be done and maybe a diagram online of where the part(s) are located. Ask about the parts at a local auto store and the man said there is a speed sensor on each wheel....WTF!
How long has your 2002 Mercedes-Benz S430 had this problem?
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2002 Mercedes-Benz S430. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
This code could be several problems. From what I am reading it could be a conductor plate, control module or even broken internal parts in a transmission. You will need a scan tool able to communicate with the ESM and ETC. To start run the adaption on the module the diagnostics are in the scan tool on this I beleve. I would probably recommend a experienced repair shop or a dealer to handle this to figure out the problem.
