1992 500SEL starting issue

Sometimes I will go out to start my 500SEL and it won't turn over.
I get all my lights and battery is full charged. I have replaced the engine wiring harness and car runs good when it starts.
If I just keep trying, it will eventually start. Sometimes it will turn over it in two or three tries but other times it will be more like 20 tries. Also dash lights do not dim at all when i try it and it does not work. I heard somewhere that a few other people had a similar problem with different models. Was the K40 relay. Does this model have a K 40 relay?
Thanks. Jay
