The troubleshooting manual shows: Models 300D/CD/TD for Model years
1983-1985.
I took the resistor unit off and found the following part numbers and looked
them up on Rustys catalog:
000 821 2760
05 8009 30
60
Wow! Didn't know they cost that much. You'd probably better hang on to
yours, Chris. I've read about several instances of them failing. Mine is
"probably" okay. I didn't get the exact same resistances on the different
coils as shown in the manual but they were close, there were no open coils,
and there were no shorts. Probably safe enough to try it. What I think
happened was that I hit two buttons simultaneously and caused a big short in
the pushbutton unit, but who knows?
Thanks,
Gerry

Is it the same as one on a W126 SD?

OH MY GOSH! Rusty gets $265 for one ($374 MSRP). I have a
spare, but now I'm a bit leery to let it go.
Do these things fail often? I don't think they do...
