Probably not caused by the lost wire.  Had that wire shorted the fuse would 
probably have blown.

Re: [MBZ] Is the List Down?

2018-07-23 Thread Larry Turner via Mercedes

Hi Mitch,

    I went back and checked my notes to confirm my findings and it was 
Fuse C that was blown.  Fuse #9 is the one that allowed the test light 
to go out when I pulled the fuses.  But I see what you mean about the 
fuse and the battery killer being separate issues. So I have 2 problems 
to locate... Is it possible the fuse got weak and popped by itself?


    Speaking of Fuses - I noticed one of my fuses had a thin strip of 
solder connecting  the ends and saw in the WSM that some (all, ?) fuses 
would have this design after 12/90 (IIRC).  Any idea what the solder was 
supposed to do on the fuse?


    And lastly, I noticed some of my fuses have the same rating but the 
metal strips look different. Normal?


Thanks!   Now I have something else to think about ;-)

Unfortunately no, when I put it away for "semi-storage" I made sure 
everything was turned off.  I should have disconnected the battery but 
something came up IIRC.  After that it was out of the memory banks..

Hi Max,

Thanks, so you think it may be as simple as swapping out the

Sure, I'm in no hurry - I can drive it with Fuse 9 removed.  The Radio 
doesn't work anyway ;-)


Is there anyway to test it?  Maybe take the bulbs out, put the fuse back 
in and see what the test light tells us?


'Course swapping the assemblies would do the same thing  let me know 
how much you want for it please...


Think I should replace my Hazard Switch?  It's another user on my #9

That is the odd thing - Fuse #8 blew but Fuse #9 is the one that turned 
off the test light as I went through the fuses disconnecting each one.  
But the fuse blowing could have been a fluke, perhaps?


I'll look at the Relay Diagrams and pull the Courtesy Light Relay, then 
put #9 back in and see what happens.


Thanks for the suggestion -

 I was camping,  a Coleman Lantern friend who also owns the Whately Engine

run. He calls his big engines "Medium sized" but I consider them HUGE. 4' 
flywheels aren't uncommon...
I've got video of him starting a "semi-diesel" which is really a hot bulb 
diesel. To start it you put a big torch on what looks a like a trailer hitch 
ball. The "injector" drips fuel onto the shaft the ball is part of inside the 
cylinder and "vaporizes" which is maybe a generous term, the fuel. That one 
blows smoke rings when its running...
I'll post some pictures and video once I get them ready.

Hi Max,

Just finished testing the fuses -   I disconnected the Neg Cable 
Connector - Then with the Test Light connected between the Neg Cable and 
Neg Post - I found the light stayed Lit the whole time except when I got 
to #9.  I pulled the top of the Fuse Holder away from the top of each 
fuse and there was no change in the way the light acted except when I 
got to #9.  The Light went out when I removed the fuse and then when I 
put the fuse back the light came back on.  I then pulled it again.


BTW, I remembered that when I R'd the AC Evap. I lost the power wire 
that makes the antenna go up/down when the radio is turned on  - it 
disappeared into the area under/behind the console and after 2 days of 
searching I gave up and found another place to get 12v when the key 
turned on.   I ended up tying into the light in the glove box for power 
to raise/lower the antenna.  Maybe that wire came in contact with the 
chassis?


But the good thing is, I am beginning to understand how to test, how the 
test work and what they tell me - Thanks to you, Peter and Craig.  I 
still have a long way to go before I can operate by myself, but at least 
I understand more about what I'm doing.


I'm still confused by Peter's comment about testing and the "Hot Side of 
the Fuse".  I thought both sides were hot when energized? But then I 
remembered what you said about the Switches and their role in my Test 
Procedure - Is this right?  One side of the Fuse Holder is Hot, and when 
the switch is switched on the circuit is completed?   Hmmm,... No, I 
guess both sides of the fuse holder could be either hot or negative 
depending on the design?  Right?


Oh well, as long as the lights come on when I flip the switch. ;-)

Anyway.  here's the list of associated things on circuit #9:

Diagnostic Term. # 6
Hazard Warning Light
Clock
Front Roof Light
Radio
Vanity Mirror Light
Relay Comfort Circuitry Term 86.

I have no idea what Term 6 and 86 do or where they are located but I 
doubt either would have a short.


I'll start troubleshooting the things on this circuit.

Comments anyone?

Re: [MBZ] Is the list down?

2010-05-01 Thread Allan Streib
The list is not down, but it does seem to be on the wane lately.  There
are only about a dozen folks who post here with any frequency, and as
often as not the posts are off topic or quickly become so.

Out of curiosity I did a google search for mercedes benz email lists
and mercedes benz discussion and okiebenz.com does not appear on the
first page of results for either.  So people who are looking for a list
are likely not finding this one, and over the years it seems we've been
steadily losing members.
