Ground? I had the fuel and temp gauges quit because of a cluster ground. They'd bounce forlornly when the blinkers were on leading me to believe theres some grounding commonality there... -Curt

Fired as soon is one jug hit the compression stroke. Driving round today, I saw the fuel and temp gauges quit working. As I went about my errends, some 60 miles, I kept jiggling the key, but the gauges stayed dead. The windows are also dead, as are the turn signals, or at least the indicator. Since I did not hear the clicking, I believe the signals are dead too. The dome light and radio (and antenna) work. At first I thought it was a bad switch, but no amount of off/on or wiggling has restored function. If the Aux wire came loose at the starter, I should not have anything working, including the starter solenoid. Anyone BTDT? Anyone got the schematic handy? Am am wondering if a screw/wire came out on the back of the ign switch. Beyond that, I am not sure what feeds the cluster windows and blinker. Obviously, Clay should send me dome of the mystical M1 blinker fluid, so I can change and refill it. BTW, it runs great and 4 segments of ~10 miles or so eye-tal-yun tuneup were good for it. _______________________________________ http://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 _______________________________________ http://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
