I don't have a DAD or the Sprinter code reader, so I can only stab in the dark. My check engine light came on yesterday while I was coming down the pass on I-80 in a pretty bad rain and wind storm. It flickered on for a second, then went off, and then came on again later and stayed on. There was no loss of power, no funny sounds, temp was OK, no noticable difference. All fluid levels are OK, and it started right up this morning, but the light is still on.
Any guesses as to why it would come on because of extreme rain? I was also on the tail end of a 500 mile drive, and this was probably an hour or so after getting fuel. I would think that the "water in fuel" light would come on if that were the problem (but it didn't once before when I actually had too much water in the filter).
