Cause Multiple possible causes can be inferred from the table, see remedy (additionally as reference table in attachment). Remedy 1) KeylessGo sensor surfaces do not respond. Door handles can extend/retract if the key is used for locking/unlocking. No particular fault code. Perform an A17/x (handle controller) reset via XENTRY (for example see attachment - under actuations tab for A17/x controller) -> add-on is available (add-on 32204 for XENTRY version 06/25) Please use one of the following damage codes: 8213H; 82197; 8213K; 82198 2) Surface-flush door handle fails to retract and/or extend One or more of the following fault codes are current and stored: B185D96; B185E96; B186196; B186296 A control unit event log for the component part concerned (A17/x) must be created and the following values checked in the \"Component Errors\" section: Motor_bridge_connection_fatal_error = True (for example, see attachment) OR Motor_bridge_wrong_direction_fatal_error = True (for example, see attachment) If one of the values is \"True\": Perform an SCN coding on the door handle A17/x via XENTRY -> add-on is available (add-on 32280 for XENTRY version 06/25) The faults must be deleted after SCN coding. Please use one of the following damage codes: 80A0F; 80N0F; 80N0G; 80A0G 3) Surface-flush door handle fails to retract and/or extend One or more of the following fault codes are current and stored: B185D96; B185E96; B186196; B186296 A control unit event log for the component part concerned (A17/x) must be created and the following value checked in the \"Component Errors\" section: Motor_init_error_for_sensors = True (for example, see attachment) If the value is \"True\" Bearing bracket must be replaced. Please use one of the following damage codes: 80A0F; 80N0F; 80N0G; 80A0G 4) Surface-flush door handle fails to retract and/or extend The fault code B185911 is stored in the DCU (N69/X). The motor resistance is too low. Bearing bracket must be replaced. Please use one of the following damage codes: 80A0D; 80N0D; 80N0E; 80A0E If after the remedy points above are performed and the problem is still present, then please create a TIPS case and direct to the Body/Chassis/Entertainment inbox. Include your control unit logs, photos/videos, and quick tests to show diagnosis performed thus far. -> In this case, store the damaged parts for further analyses.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11022923-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11022923-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/11022923","components":[{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null}],"codes":["B1859","B185D","B185E","B1861","B1862"],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"AMG EQE","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"AMG EQE SUV 4MATIC","year_from":2024,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"AMG EQS","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"AMG S 63 E 4MATIC+","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E 350","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E 350 4MATIC","year_from":2025,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E 450","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E 450 4MATIC","year_from":2025,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E 450 4MATIC ALL-TERRAIN","year_from":2025,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQE 350 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQE 350+","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQE 500","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQE 500 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQE SUV 350 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQE SUV 350+","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQE SUV 500 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQS 450 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQS 450+","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQS 580","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQS 580 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2023,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQS SUV 450 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQS SUV 450+","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"EQS SUV 580 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"S 500 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2023,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"S 580","year_from":2023,"year_to":2023,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"S 580 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"S 580 E","year_from":2023,"year_to":2023,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"S 580 E 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2025,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"redundant EQE 350","year_from":2024,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"redundant EQE 350 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2023,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"redundant EQS 450","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"MERCEDES-MAYBACH","model":"S 580 4MATIC","year_from":2023,"year_to":2024,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
