Talking I am selling all my cars.

1996 e300d alarm location?
Can anybody help me locate the alarm on a 96 e300d and please include instructions to disconnect it because my car won't start. The red and green lights on the rearview mirror is flashing like x'mas lites. I read the post about it being locate under the passenger foot well and i opened it up, all I saw was a couple of black box, one the size of a business card with two plugs, nothing like the ones shown in the 93 w124 illustration or its that it? The other was a 4 pin relay. TIA

it's not a good idea to post this kind of info on another's thread... best to start your own.
I moved it to it's own thread.

My indie told me that in my 96 e300d, the alarm is integrated with the fuel system and tha'ts why my car won't start. My indie suggest bypass the alarm system and connect the fuel pump directly to the fuel injection system, how this can be done I am not sure. What are anyone's thoughts, I'd love to hear them.

Your car is a bit newer than my 93 but I had alarm issues as well and this worked perfectly for my 93 300D W124. Not sure but it might help in locating the unit anyway.

Try re-sync'ing your key or using a spare key.

This is a disabler system = the vehicle will not start or run without it.

FYI

Here is additional data, for those interested in buying the car.

The alarm module may need flash programming (but I doubt it for this year model).


Vacuum Supply Pump/ALARM module - For Central Lock
