Dunno about 115, but I think it is pretty much the same as 123. I did
that on 123 by pulling the gearshift surround. On the 115, you may have
to pull the whole console. The switch lives above the trans and in
front of the shifter. With a wiring diagram, you can probably do it
under the hood or under the dash. If you trace the wires from under the
car, thind follow it under the hood, you may be able to jump the wires
in an easier location.

Hello everyone,
I've determined that my 300D's neutral safety switch is kaputt.
Wiggling the shifter works OK, but diminishingly so, and yesterday it
took five minutes (at the gas station!) to get the starter to fire.
I'll order a new switch on Monday, but in the meantime I'd like to
bypass it.
I've seen several posts for where the electrical connector is located
for the neutral safety switch on W123 and W126 models, but none for a
W115 300D. Is it in the engine compartment (W126), cabin (W123), or
under the car somewhere?
Having a devil of a time locating any section of any MB manual that
covers this switch; closest I've gotten is a bootleg copy of a 722.3
manual for a G-wagen.
Thanks for any and all tips,
D.
