Hi Rick - I'll try and communicate this way as it might help others with a similar question about your product.

I have a European specification W201 => a 201.018 chassis - year 1992 with an eight pin connector.



I watched your video but was wondering how us children of a lesser god with 8 pin connectors have to sort out the power from plug 16 which doesn't exist on the 8 pin socket version - I assume you just crocodile clip straight from the battery. Is that right?

Does your documentation include the 201.018 chassis?

Sorry for the delay, I didn't have my email notifications on. The 8 pin does not provide power. You must connect the red end of my tester to the positive battery. Thanks, Rick

Can someone help me with this question? I also have 201.018 and I wonder how to read blink code for this particular model. Is it any different from US models like 201.029, 201.028?

I can't remember exactly the which codes are correct - I think they are the same as the later set described in the FSM (post 1989 - something like that)


I don't think I have actually ever gotten an error code from this part of the system before - the code reader is needed to set the system to "diagnostic mode" so you can adjust the duty cycle for example.


Sorry to be so vague - it has been a long time since I last did this (car has been running quite well recently!)

Yes. I can ship this morning if you like. The ebay checkout calculates shipping, usually between $11 and $13.
