 Hi Everyone,

  He says it needs
 rear brakes as the light comes on.  Is the light just an indicator there is
 a fluid inbalance, or faulty master cylinder?


Is it the parking brake light (BRAKE) or the lining light
(concentric broken circles)?  The former means low fluid or
sticking/misadjusted parking brake mechanism (common on 124s, not sure
about 126s); the latter means worn pads or faulty (intermittently
grounding) sensors.

[MBZ] 420 SEL test port question?

2007-07-11 Thread E M
Hi Everyone,

Going to look at a 420 SEL later this week.  I know the V8s have a test
port.  Is it the same as the 300E, red on #3 and black on ground if you want
to have a look at the 02 sensor to see what's up with a dwell meter?  Also,
where does rust like to hide in these beasts?  I'm told the car is extra
clean with only about 100,000 miles, so we will see.  Few records tough, so
I'll look extra close and a PPI on this one before buying.  He says it needs
rear brakes as the light comes on.  Is the light just an indicator there is
a fluid inbalance, or faulty master cylinder?

Thanks everyone.

Looked at your pics and like it, but too far away.  This one is local.  I
wanted a 560, but the few I saw and liked, people didn't want to part with

Thanks anyway.
