MPS until about 9/92

OK class, those of you who remembered your service manuals please turn to section 0080 of the Electrical Systems chapter. This describes the testing procedure for the MPS (marten protection system). Those of you with cardiac pacemakers are excused. When operating properly the MPS is only activated when the hood is closed (hence the need for the button described at the start of this thead). Persons with cardiac pacemakes should not fool with this button before they have willed their beloved MB to an appropriate heir. Those of you unfortunate MB owners with nearly new (i.e., after 9/92) vehicles, please take care to avoid a marten attack when opening your hood.
