I hate it when parts are discontinued. I can get just about any part for my 1971 Corvette, but the '93 190E is getting tougher.

Here's one used on eBay.....

Thank you I have seen that one.

If I have to spend that much I will have to do so. The problem is that I doubt very much if the sensor has been tested. If that also gives an error then I'm sending stuff back...

...I'd rather have a new sensor.

Still thanks for your help. That page is bookmarked.

Don't leave that there - I'll take it to bits!

...and I cut off the lid to see how complicated the switch is









Bloody rocket science (again).

I'm going to try some contact spray and see if I can get the main contact that spins under a bit more pressure.

I've buggered the top a bit cutting it off but I guess a bit of glue will make that kind of OK again (perhaps)

Available only with throttle valve, p/n 001 140 90 53.

126 540 59 45 = 201 540 42 45.

Thank you very much for your help with this.

The classic parts site lists the price for 0011409053 for about 200 euros. Seeing the cost / asking price of the second hand ones at more than half this price I think I'd rather splurge for the new part.

Still I'm hoping a bit of contact spray and glue will be all that is needed for now!
