Hello,

This is a repeat of a previous post but that didn't have the option to
reply to group.

My 1986 300e started making a high pitched whining noise which seemed
to
come from the steering wheel area.  However I soon figured out that if
I
turned on the turn signal indicator, either left or right,  the noise
stopped.  Then I noticed the dash indicators measuring the fuel, temp,
and oil all had died- registering nothing.   I had just filled up the
gas tank so I knew that one was wrong.  Funny though, the fuel economy
gauge worked fine.

Recent new battery and alternator regulator assembly which has new
brushes.

I will check the fuse tonight.

Any other suggestions?

Incidentally I get a different buzz noise when a door is ajar or seat
belt is not on - how many different buzzing sounds are there?

Thanks
SSR
