I'm pretty sure it's the 105/115 switch for the aux fan.
Jump it Key on to start the fan.

click the link below...then scroll down almost to the bottom.

You will see a large color photograph depicting what I think is the item that you are referring to.

If that is not it, then please post a pic.

Good luck.

So... whats wrong with my 86' 300E M103?

It turns on upon a bridge if the sensor connector wires.


Or maybe they switched from on=on to off=on at some point.
