I know how to do it on a 300D but not on a 300SD.

Does anybody know how to bypass the neutral safety switch on a 126 300SD
from under the hood?

I assume you just want to start it up? On a W126... on the passenger side,
there are a row of electrical wires below the antifreeze tank... The purple
wire is remote starter wire... so you hook up a remote starter to it... and
to positive of battery and you can crank it until it starts.

I went to try it but thought I'd give it one more try without
doing anything and it started perfectly. All I did was sleep.

It was ungodly cold last night and I'm wondering if the solonoid just
froze or something.

Could be... or it could be that your battery is really cold too... enough
so you only get a click... Either way, you know what you gotta do... keep an
eye on that starter... test your battery and any other things or you are
gonna get real stuck one day...
