normal and left side,recklast.What is its function?It's a 76 450SE euro

Hoping someone can help me diagnose an A/C problem with this car. For
background, the A/C system was mostly replaced a few years ago (new
compressor, dryer), and the monovalve is reatively new as well.
My A/C no longer turns on. If I push the auto-hi or auto-low buttons, I

    Can anyone tell me what the AC diode sensor switch (the little
wafer with 2 connectors) that screws on to the end of  the blower
motor in my 107 does? I couldn't get  the blower to change speed, and
one of the connectors on this diode broke when I removed the wire to

I am just wondering what the difference is between a SLC and an SCL?
Are they the same car?
I've seen photographs of them both and they seem very similar but I'm
not 100% sure.

Would it be wise to do this taking into consideration the fuel tank is
behind the seat?I bought 50 feet of 2 gauge wire for absolutely no

The reason is I have 3 amplifiers for my stereo in the trunk and am

How does one remove the door handle on a 201 190E?
I got the electrical connection for the power door lock off and also
the hex nut from the side of the handle.  Is there anything else to

Can someone with access to the Mercedes manuals kindly post the total
coolant capacity for the non-turbo 300D engine (617.912). This is for a
1980 300TD. Also the correct coolant/water ratio. The best antifreeze
to use is still Zerex G-05, right?

The one feature of the 97 E320 that I DO NOT like is the IR remote.
Right now I have about a 6 ft range with it.
What range are the rest of you getting?
(Yes, this baby had all the bells & whistles.  Heated seats [that I'm

When the AC is on, the driver's side air flow is warmer than the
passenger side.  Both settings are the same.
Should I look toward the baffles not moving, or something else?

Hi there, my 190D 1992 won't stop running. i have been looking myself but i
can't find any wires on the fuelpump.
Does anyone know how the fuelpump gets cut out of fuel?
I can stop it by hand but my wife hates it to open the hood anytime she
