Is the switch the same as on an '85 201? Send me a picture. I kept the pair I'd bought for my '85 190D, I *think* I even know where they are. I paid big money for them from Q back in uhhh, '05 I think when I got that car. -Curt

I found the tach signal voltage in the plug to the computer, but I have no signal out of the computer. According to the ETM, the output is pin 25, but I see no pin for input. There is no ID of pins in the computer or in the plug. Has anyone seen any pinout for the ESD Computer? I could run a jumper to the tach from the plug to check the tach, I suppose. or swap out the EDS Computer or dig into the harness and find the white/ in and the black/red out and jump them. Next: to get a speedo cable.... Then I'll figure out which option. Since the EDS is disconnected, I'm thinking just jump the tach in to the tach out. Anyone have a spare speedometer cable or a drivers seat adjustment switch? >Curly. >As before, the only place that I lost the tach signal was from a >broken ground wire at the battery ground lug. >Under the bolt were 3 or 4 thin ground wires, all broken on mine. >repair of the wires restored the tach to normal. >The ground wire is after the connector near the battery. >I have a spare EDS box that you could try. >YMMV.
