If swapping the OVP doesn't do it, check for spark. Fuel is already present. I'd say your junkyard OVP gave up the ghost.
So the car will not start w/o an OVP or if one is fried you're saying?

That sure would be the best outcome John. I do have one in the other 300E I just bought - oddly - working well in that car - it has *two* fuses in it - a ten amp and a 15 amp fuse side by side.

I'd sure hate to fry this other one too - is it a case of that OVP "giving up" or could something else fry one of these units?
