Well the cable that connects to it seems fine, I could try using a different
one. Or perhaps an internal wire. I might see if I can figure out how to take
it apart without screwing it up.
Yesterday when I had the issue with the beam being blocked to the back on the
left side, the RF was
Or, if there are any plug connectors in the wiring harness, pull them apart,
clean, connect/disconnect them a few times.

What logic? The 300SL was W198 in 1954, the 450SL was R or C 107 in 1971.

Extra 0 in price. I wonder if it might be solid enough to slip in a
whole new drivetrain and leave it looking as it does, a little rust
fixer and some clear coat, and hoon the hell out of it. The hood might

Something caused a dead short to battery... and I wager it took out many
items while the electrical system self-destructed...
So, repair would entail much more than just a new battery and cable.. most
likely.. Or,, you could remove the Mercedes star and replace it with a
Jaguar emblem and call it
B.O.A.T. "Bring Out Another Thousand" ... so, what could possibly go
wrong ..
Note: It is going to be hard to jack up your Benz in the driveway and work
on it...

I’ve used cc many times on different vehicles while towing and never had any

controller to maintain speed (although on Benzes I’m sure it’s overly
complicated). RPM and transmission should work together to maintain
