1992 190E Ignition bypass - no key
 

Hi there, my dad just got a 92 190e for free. The car has been sitting for 2 years, before getting it put into his name and paying CA transfer fees and taxes and such, we'd first like to get it running to know its worth it. It has no key, and in CA you cannot get one from the dealer without proof of ownership.

We are trying to bybass the ignition to see if the car will start. On my 93 300ce, I can bypass the ignition, NSS and alarm by jumpering x27. Is there a similar jump that I can do to make the car crank and start w/out the key?

Thanks all

James

To hell with the dealer, just find a good locksmith.
