Thanks Gerry,

That's pretty much what I figured, I've run out of light for the day and was hoping for some good news. Hoping, not expecting.


Cheers,
Ian

Rule of thumb is that if you don't have documentation that a harness has been changed, 95% probability that it has never been changed. Be prepared to pay around $700 for a new factory harness (no aftermarket units made) from MB. Cheapest place to order is through XXXX.
