Thanks alot for your message.

I noticed you also have a 300 SDL, I just bought one, its 87 with 96 original miles! I have a slight problem, Since I bought this car from an auction, it seems someone has pulled out a part, it seems its the OVP relay which is supposed to be between the 2 firewalls, I guess its supposed to look like a Silver piece with an orange top with a 10a fuse, there is also another piece next to it which looks like a flat piece of plastic and a few holes in it probably about 12-16, I am not sure if anything is supposed to go there??

Would you mind sending me a pic of that part of your car so that I know what it looks like??

This seems to be causing the problem of my Tacho not working and the A/C not working, my ABS light is also on. What I did was, I went to a salvage yard and picked me a relay OVP, ofcourse it was from an old car 87 300D, I am not even sure if this is supposed to work in my car or not, and it was making some noise when I shake it, anyhow, I picked it up for $10, I figured it would not work, I out it in and start the car, the light went off and the tacho worked and the engine ran a little different!! a lill smoother, but after running for a few minutes, it made an erratic jump in RPM and the ABS light came on and the engine started sounding a little diff, the tacho also stoped working, do U think the OVP was bad??

Gosh, thats alot of text for you, I am sorry, its just coz I am very new at all this, I would really appreciate your help.

Thanks
