Over on the benzworld w140 forum
http://www.benzworld.org/forums/forums/forum-view.asp?fid=13
there is lots on the decomposing wire on certain W140 (& others) from
the mid 90's
Certainly lots on the S(L)600 which requires two of everything at
extraordinary prices,
and some threads about folks attempting repair via aircraft grade
wiring and soldering irons.
Personally I coughed up funding for a wiring harness to replace the
cracked ones for my S500 and a new AFM since the rat (yes physical
rat) chewed wires enough to toast the electronics in it.

Russ,
We need more info... there are approximatley a jillion control boxes
on that car. Which one did the dealer quote $7k for? I'm suspecting
the LH module (fuel computer), EZL (ignition module), or TBA (throttle
body actuator... none of which should be more than, oh, $2-$4k. If you
can get more details I'm sure we could locate a used box for a few
hundred bucks. Or, I'll buy the car, if he'll sell it cheap, lol...

Subject: [MBZ] WTB the control box that makes V12 run like a 6cyl.
My Insurance guy has a 94 SL600 and its running like a 6cyl. Does
anyone have a used control box for sale? Kaleb? I don't know the
part # for the box he needs, but I can find out if you think you
have it. I did point him to Rusty. The dealer told him $7K for the
box! ( I told him he could most likely buy 2 mint 300SD's for that
price!) Russ H.
