starter lock out/ Backup lamp switch ?
 

First time i hafta post something, usually find everything i need just by searching!! :) Anyway, i have a 1995 E420 with 112k miles.

On the driver side above the transmission oil pan right below the vacuumline theres a switch of some sort. Its got a wire attached to it that goes somewhere else. Whats the name of that part ?

Ive developped a small leak there and need to replace the part. I was thinking starter lock out/backup lamp switch? I have a whole stack of books and cd`s for the car but cant find that part anywhere.

Anyone got any idea what im talking about ?

whats the name of that part ?
 

Someone here must know the name of that part. C`mon guys help me out here.

Thanks for that link Arthur, but i already tried that and also tried googling it. Just cant find it anywhere.

Its a copper colored thing that screws in to the side of the transmission with a black wire attached to it. It sits below the vacuum line on the drivers side. Just above the transmission oil pan.

So, you looked at all those tranny parts I listed on that link ???
