Do you mean "nothing" or "starter motor doesn't turn nor does the solenoid doesn't click" 'cause correct dash lights doesn't sound like "nothing". At which end of the switch-to-solenoid wire did you measure voltage? If there is 12 V at the small terminal on the solenoid on the starter, and it doesn't "clunk", then it would seem a dead solenoid is the problem. One way to test is to jumper from the big battery (top) terminal on the solenoid to the small one on the side. The solenoid should "clunk" and the starter motor should spin. If there is no "clunk", and jumping the two big ones makes the starter spin, then the solenoid is dead. -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
