The IDEA of an anti-tow sensor is a good one & it is used on many cars today including the ML's. IF the car was locked & alarm was armed and someone "moved the car" like a tow truck, the sensor would set off the alarm. However the ones on MB's thru early 1987 didn't function properly & would cause "honk-honk-honk" all of the time. SO MB deleted them & ALL of them were susposed to be removed OR disconnected.
