Re: [MBZ] Total insanity
The tach never works on these. Or at best it works intermittently.

Re: [MBZ] Total insanity
> Biggest issue is the SRS light that won't go off - this was the first > Mercedes with an airbag. 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

I just purchased a cabernet red '85 300SD in amazing condition to replace the sold '83 300TD wagon. Biggest issue is the SRS light that won't go off - this was the first Mercedes with an airbag.
