Just as I had feared!! Dealer said that there were so many whacky codes thrown that the problem HAS to be the wiring harness. They noted degradation of the wiring harness at the MAF and other locations throughout the engine bay.
The "shop foreman" reported that the engine harness is connected to the A/C so that may be the source of my A/C problems (is this true?). He said the same thing for may radiator fans.
1995 C36 AMG Wiring Harness Part # - WA 202 540 03 32
Part lists for $1,360.
Dealer wants $1600 parts and labor. No thanks!
Phil wants less than list. Can you believe I can get a regular C280 harness for only about $600? Gotta love AMG parts...everything is double...consistent with the sticker price of the car, I guess!!
BuyMBParts (Rusty Cullens) wants slightly more less than list.
Do you guys have any suggestions on trying to reduce my expenses? Other parts sources?
Thanks so much for your input!
