Thanks I probably should get an extra one of those metal strips mine looks very old. Although I could always jump it if I need to get the car started, a nail or peice of wire would do it.

What does an 80-amp nail look like?

Well if it's cold out it is better than getting it towed. It just controls the glowpulgs right? So I could just jump it start the car and remove it if I had to. I'll just get another one don't worry.

Sorry about the delay... I had to go out of town for the last few days, but it did give me the chance to go by the stealer. 4 fuses for under 5 bucks. I live about 3 hours from the nearest MB dealer. Everything seems to work fine, started up right away and worked fine.

Thanks for all the help, online and off.

peragro,

You said you got new fuses but you didn't specify if you replaced the original fuse.

Did replaceing the fuse cure your problem?

yep, I replaced the 80 amp fuse and that cleared the problem up. Actually the car seems to be starting quicker now - maybe that's just my perception. I've got 3 spare fuses if I run into having to trouble shoot or get stranded.

Thanks for the help.
