'86 560sl - cruise control - Help!!!

May 13, 2004 2 Replies

I bought an '86 560sl. Everything seems to work good except the cruise control. It doesn't do anything, like a blown fuse. The fuse (in the box under the passenger kick plate) is good.



What should I check next? Is there an indicator light for when it is engaged? If there is, it doesn't light.



Thanks,



Joe


sounds like the cruise control amplifier

I repaired mine by simply blanket resoldering the board, works like new again, and was totally dead before. if your hopeless at soldering, pay someone else to do it, or just buy a new amplifier.

Joe -

Unless you're adept at soldering on printed circuit boards, you should go sit at the feet of these good folks:

This same problem occurs across MB model series, and is fixable.
