1977 W123 dash lights not working
My dash/center IP lights don't work. I already tried replacing the dimmer switch and that didn't help. I replaced the headlight switch when I first got the car so it might have something to do with that since the replacement one was not exactly like the one I replaced. I've also checked all the fuses in the fuse box and replaced the bulbs with ones that were tested. All the warning/turn signal lights work, just not the ones that light up the dash/trans/etc.

1982 240D ignition switch faliure?
After turning off the car and removing the key the radio remains on and the aux fuel boost pump wired to activate in the aux mode continues to pressurize the fuel system. Car has 232K and in the last 19 years of ownership I have not replaced the ignition switch.
Is my diagnosis accurate of a failed ignition switch in the acc. position?

1984 300 D fuel reserve light.
Hi all. My fuel guage works with the exception of the "low fuel light". When I go to start the car the light shows so I know the bulb is good. It just does'nt light when the fuel gets low to the point where it should come on. Can I take the sending unit out of the tank and see if the contacts that would trigger the light are some how being impeded? Can I perhaps clean the contacts rather than spring for a new sending unit. I can live without the light but will try an easy cheap fix.
Thanks Mike G.

'82 300TD - Circuit 1 fuse blowing
I have a 1982 300TDT. My fuse for circuit 1 keeps blowing. I have the correct color fuse installed as per the fuse box specification.
Over a year and a half ago this started happening. Up until now I could just replace the fuse and it would be fine for several months, so I just let it go.
Now, however, it blows immediately as soon as ignition switch or lights are turned on.
When this blows I lose my dash lights, right rear taillight and right marker light. It basically means I can't safely drive it at night until I get the problem taken care of. The turn signals still work, by the way, if that somehow helps to diagnose the problem.
