I read about a similar issue on here and I’m hoping you can tell me what you did to fix your issue with no crank no start on ml320. I know it talked about getting a new ecm but something to do with the eis also. Please help if you can.

Hi:

I'll give it my best shot to help. I need additional information. First, when you turn the key to the on position, do you have power at the dashboard? If so, when you turn the key, do you hear anything? For example, do you hear a click or anything? Does anything change if you try starting it in neutral?

Also, take a look through this link to see if anything helps.

Let me know,

Take care,

Joe

Yep I agree with Joe, do you have spark and fuel? we need the basics so we can see which way to go to help fix the problem, here is a good video on how to get started.
