Re: [MBZ] shorts
This is exactly what happensed to me. The wire was exposed upstream of the antenna motor, and would occasionally ground out. This was in the trunk along the drivers side. Fortunately turned out to be an easy diagnosis and fix.

Thank you Fred. Your insight was invaluable in hunting down the fault in the horn. I was able to fix it with a $5 part. A PnP steering wheel -- Clay Seattle Bioburner 1972 220D - Gump 1995 E300D - Cleo 1987 300SDL - POS - DOA The FSM would drive a Diesel Benz
Re: [MBZ] - Shorts
Hi, All. After almost 30 years my memory ain't so hot, though I do remember the horn ring as having a shoulder screw upon which were a wavy washer, a flat washer and a small insulator, like a top hat with no crown (maybe a small spring). A fiddley job as I remember. Sorry not to be more specific. Perhaps the EPC can give you a breakdown of parts and the relative position of the insulators. The 220D was the second MB that I ever owned, the first in America, all I could afford after the first wife's lawyer got through with me.
