I had that on my 107. Turned out to be bad capacitors for the boost power supply, which was external in the earliest systems. In my case, it was upside down, near the top release handle, and had filled with water and corroded the capacitors away. Two replacement capacitors and the airbag system was happy again. These are classic aluminum electrolytic capacitors, of large-ish size, and they're not known for their longevity. This is the system that's intended to ensure that there is sufficient power to fire the squibs, even if the car's power has already failed. Check your car's schematic. Of course, there's lots of other potential causes. That's just one that's not obvious. -- Jim _______________________________________ 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
