Does anyone have a fuse map of the W115? The car is a W115 200 Petrol from 1970. Originally there was a card under the fuses detailing what worked of each fuse, what I would appreciate is a scan of this card... mine rotted away. otherwise a simple list would do.
Elec question 1.
The battery charge light will glow dimly with the engine running and headlights off, with the headlights on it, the no light is visible. Alternator brushes are good... imminent diode failure? The grounds are OK.
Elec question 2.
Will the original wires be able to handle higher output bulbs.. eg 100/95? I tried this on my W123 and the wires are OK after 2years, but the plug (on the back of the bulb) has turned brown). I know the best solution would be to use relays but I really don't want to cut the wires .
Elec question 3.
I know its possible to ditch the points system in favour of the contactless system from the later M115 (fitted in W123 cars). What parts do I need? Distributor obviously... I haven't seen them selling any aftermarket kits here in Malaysia.
thanks
