Re: [MBZ] multi-purpose stalk on '84 300D
Thanks sorry I just reposted on this same topic but multiple stalk functions are down incl wipers, optical horn, washer pump, left turn signal. Will try to rehab it with corrosionx.

On my 123 wagon, I removed the stalk and took it apart for cleaning, to restore the wiper function. End cap can be pried off. On my 124 sedan, the optical horn contacts are at the base of the stalk. Didn't have to remove it, just pop off the cover at the base and spay deoxit on the revealed contacts.

Remove and reinstall after cleaning - should do the trick.

[MBZ] multi-purpose stalk on '84 300D
Anyone have any testing clues as the headlight flashing (squeezing) function doesn't seem to work? It used to work, now all other functions of this stalk do work. TIA G. M.

check the fuse for the Optical Horn. Huh? Wazzat? That's what DBAG calls the flash function on the stalk. It has its own fuse, though it's shared with other functions. -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com All posts are the result of individual contributors and as such, those individuals are responsible for the content of the post.
