Top access

To bypass the NSS, cross the violet and violet/white wires. Remember that you will then be able to engage the starter motor with the transmission in any gear.

The following info is from FSM (DVD...

Finished!

The rebuilt Bosch starter arrived yesterday, I installed it today. No problems other than slight modifications to allow the car's factory wiring to coexist with the slightly different configuration...

Another update

My mechanic says that Mercedes diesel starters, "especially the older ones," tend to be heat sensitive. He recommends spraying the starter with cold water if it acts up again. Today the car starts...

Update

The neutral safety switch's plug has been rebuilt (see pictures) and a wire has been run from the starter solenoid up to where I can get at it with my remote starter switch. The ground lead is clean...

Wired

It is the same with the W210. Fortunately, I have the ETM and its diagrams (although the pinouts and wire colors do not completely agree with what is actually in the car, so I issue a caution here)....

The wiring to the solenoid is well hidden -- I can see it but am not sure I can get to it without removing the intake manifold, which I'd rather not do. It would certainly not be a convenient way to...

Thanks for the suggestion. No, I haven't been able to figure out how to do that. I have located the starter, low on the left side of the engine, under the intake manifold and pretty much out of reach...

Problem identified

It's not the neutral safety switch!

For the past couple of days, I have been taking the car for a drive and then letting it spend the day in the sun, sitting in the driveway rather than in the...

Thanks for the information. It sounds like they changed the design for '98-99. Your ice cube relay is not in the '96. It would be a lot easier and less expensive to replace. Oh well.

I'll post...

More update

The following applies to the '96 E300D, probably to the '97, maybe to the '98-99. YMMV.

Studying the schematics in the FSM (DVD version), I learned that the W210 cars have a "cycle module" (N65)...

Update

This morning, the transmichigan shop told me that, in overhauling Mercedes automatic transmissions, they normally do not replace the neutral safety switch. [In Fords, they always do.] So, since AFAIK...

W210 starting problem

Our '96 E300D (W210, OM606NA) is becoming a "non-starter." Yesterday, my wife called to say that "the car won't start." After making sure she wasn't trying to start it in gear (which has happened), I...
