[QUOTE=Stoney;1816250]If you had asked "year/model?' I would have answered 92 300E but your so called question was more of either a me too or a comment...NOT a question. Am I supposed to fathom what is in your brain when you cannot write what you mean? I don't think so.>>
That is what I asked....you simple had to finish my question with " it's a "92 300E " ...Am I supposed to fathom your chassis???
The point being that YOU benifit from listing your model much more than the forum does..most Tech will pass on a post w/o that basic info b/c they know they can not give you a correct answer due to the many different systems and yearly production changes , even in the same vintage chassis....
RR made a good attempt, but without that info , it is just a guess.
>>>Since the common book does not cover it, neither does Haynes or the SAfrican book and I was unable to find a detail on Startek -I posted...and from what I have seen in several engine bay shots the same box is on all 124 chassis in the same or close locality. >>
That is correct..it is the same box, EXCEPT it is USED for different applications, depending on which CHASSIS and YEAR you have.

Yes , there is a schematic and now that we know which model you have , we can bring it right up on screen for ya and it will plainly show us what circuits Benz has decided to use this 2 fuse aux box for on THAT particular chassis.

Have one, but thank you for sharing such Wisdom...
While I have your Scematic up, we may as well get right to it for ya...
Power Distribution:
Schematic 124.0/.1/.2
Revision # 1-as of 1992 year models: **[ Please note the revision date]
Aux. Fuse Holder - R22/f1 & f2
F22/2- 16Amp -Optional heated Seats
F22/1- 8 Amp - CTEL
As one can see, The R22 was used for these funtions as of 1/92 on 124 chassis, but was used for other funtions on the pre-92 year models. And R22/1 was never intended as a spare fuse compartment/holder.
I hope this helps answer some of the questions you have querried about and may help you in understanding the importance of yr/model for future post.
