Larry,,, the one I checked was on the TE with 115 K. Haven't really looked at the 93 yet.

Well....If you're really lucky, you won't have that lousy harness. If your only a little lucky, it will just be the harness. If you have lousy luck, then the throttle actuator could be next; if you have bad luck, then your EZL might get eaten too.

Ask me how I know...... (well, ok..I haven't actually replaced the actuator yet, but that may soon have to happen)

If I ever meet the guy that approved this wiring, I am going to kick him in the butt..............TWICE!

Thanks
If you live in bc canada, I could show you my old harness.... Mine seemed perfectly fine, however underneith the shell's, the wires were kind of crusty, and if you squeezed and twisted them, it would break the wires....i don't recommend you doing that...but change it before you fry something...I feel it was the cause of my air mass meter's early death.

That is my approximate cost, your price may vary,,,, and I don't know why all Benz dealerships wouldn't have the same part# at the same price.
