Thanks!  I'll check Hemmings. I am hopeful I will be able to repair it without buying more parts.  I am hoping I can get the correct gauge wire at our local FLAPS.  Are the connections soldered or crimped?  If you recall LarryT On 10/02/2017 9:32 PM, Dwight Giles via Mercedes wrote:

Larry yes I had to have some wire harness replacement on my 124 300D 2.5t. At that time it was,available from MB. Recently I saw an ad,for 124 wire replacements-probably in The Star or Hemmings. Dwight Dwight Giles Jr. Wickford RI On Oct 2, 2017 3:23 PM, "Larry Turner via Mercedes"

That's be great Max - if you go to the PnP please check to see if they still have one.  I saw some 240D harnesses for between $25 and $50.  Let me know what you think the going rate might be and I'll let you know if it's in my budget. Right now my plan is to pull the Harness and repair it

Very unlikely you need to replace the whole gp harness. If it's blowing the fuse you have a short. Either a plug is shorted which should be easy to find, or often times the connectors at the gp gets rotated around on the stud of the plug and contacts the head or other metal part somewhere. It's

Hey Larry, recommend you try Tom Hanson at the Classic Center for the harness part number and availability. I was able to get a new harness for my '95 sedan about seven years ago. Other options include rebuilding it yourself or sending to a place that rebuilds harnesses. In my experience

Hi All,     Against my better wishes, I took the 91 300D W124 to a Indy.  My wife thought they worked on Diesel MBs and the person at the shop thought the same.  Now I'm not so sure.  I was getting a short around the wiring harness going to the GPs.  The shop said one of the GPs was bad  and
