ESL/EIS Failure

20

Asked by Todd Jan 08, 2020 at 01:07 PM about the 2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK 350 4MATIC

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

So I am relatively certain I am experiencing an ESL/Eis failure and would like
to get my car serviced. The problem, is we are in a private garage with low
clearance and in a tight spot. Since there is no ignition, steering is locked
and it cannot be shifted out of gear thus making access difficult for the tow.
Question: Is there a way to bypass the ESL or override the transmission to
get it out of gear?? Just want to get it moved!
