SOURCE: Error message says "Stop Car too Low"

There is a problem with the air-ride system, or the active body control system.

Is the car sitting lower than normal?

SOURCE: C240 UNDERVOLTAGE CONSUMER DEFECTIVE

Sounds to me like a voltage regulator issue. This is attached to the alternator and monitors how much voltage is sent back to the battery. Any decent parts store should be able to hook up a charging system tool-most common is a Vat-40 and check the system. And they will probably do it for free. If there is an issue with the charging system, then try the voltage regulator first, as opposed to the alternator-there is quite a price difference I assure you. Let me know what you find.

SOURCE: Error message says "Stop Car too Low"

it means the tire is in danger of contacting the inner fender, is it low in front on the right side? if not the ride height sensor is most likely defective.

SOURCE: MY WILL NOT START THE CAR C240 MERCEDES BATTERY IS NOT DEAD

I am assuming that the engine won't even turn over. could be lots of different things. The simplist is to make sure the car in in PARK , won't start if not. Other things could be , Security imobilizer if you have one. Does your key have a electronic chip in it ? Try your other set of keys if you have one. Check if battery connections are clean and tight.

2003 C320 - 'Battery under voltage, switch consumers off'

when the vehicle voltage supply gets low, the car will shut down high current consumers (seat heaters, climate control fan, etc) until the voltage stabilizes. you might have a battery going dead, or the alternator might be wiggin out and not charging at times or when it gets hot. There have been many issues with the "alternator voltage regulator" mounted on the back of the alternator, failing completely or failing intermittently and under load. How old is your battery? Have you had to jump start the car recently?

2001 C240 ''Undervoltage Consumer Defective''

The same thing happened to me and it turned out to be the alternator. Need to replace your alternator. Easy check, start the car and check the DC voltage of the battery, with the car running you should read around 14 volts. If you are reading 12-12.25 volts then the alternator is not generating.
