GeorgeRa, Thanks for your excellent suggestions. I hadn't thought of Mercedes, not knowing that some Sprinters have hydronic systems installed in stock models. Will probably call Jim Rixen, too. ...

All, Thanks again very much to all of you. I'm now pretty convinced that my unit is in lockdown mode due to repeated non-starts (although why does the coolant pump still run?).

There is a...
