There are about 4 different types of idle control valves on MB engines, they all use different controls. The last versions starting with the M103 engine pulse voltage signals, ie: duty cycle. The 1984 to 1986 190E have a 3 wire set-up on the idle valve.
Most common failure is aging of the solenoid windings.
