Where are the Fuses?

May 13, 2004 3 Replies

I have a friend that owns a 1980 Mercedes 240 and it is having charging problems. Trying to locate the fuse panel is becoming a chore ! We have looked behind everything , but the front bumper ! Can someone give us a clue ? The car has a 12v power draw from somewhere with key and everything shut off,,,and trying to locate the cicuit it is on . also



He might be wanting to sell it,,,any idea as to price range for a good condition (except the charging) 1980 240 ?



Thanks in advance !

There are also a few fuses under the wind panel under the front windshield. To get to them you undo the cover under the winshield to find the fuses there.

----------- i had a similar problem on an SD, and the mechanic simply cleaned the main ground - the place where the big wire attaches to the body, before the starter. try it, but also check the fuses.
