W124 OVP Relay
 

Ok, I've searched archives until I'm sick of it and ...

Where's the Overvoltage Protection Relay (OVP) actually located on my '88 300TE?

TIA

The OVP relay is behind the battery to the right. It has a small blade type fuse on the top of it. Good luck.

Thanks.

Will look again ... must have missed it.

You havr to take the bkack plastic panel off to see it .. behind the battery

My problem was I had an old, single-fuse model with black cover, and was expecting a red cover like the new twin-fuse replacements.

Got a chance to look at Wife's 300E and it turns out it had a new, red one, so I then knew exactly where to look.

Thanks everyone.
