C280 Limp Mode

Hello all!

Lately when we start our '97 C280, the ABS light comes on and the car is in Limp Mode. I can reset the Limp Mode by driving ~200 feet, turning off the car, waiting 10 seconds, then restarting car.

After driving for 20-30 minutes, the ABS light goes out.

This is really annoying!

Anyone ever have this trouble? If so, were you able to fix the problem? How?

Thanks in advance!
