Would make this job a whole lot easier if MB sold this connector with unspliced wires coming out of the end.
I also found a UK company that will reman the unit for a very reasonable $500 w/2yr warranty in worst case scenario ( http://BBA-reman.com). Anyone have any experience with these folks?
Thanks again all  |
this company but check
MENU#24 for some sources and the all-important feedback on these sources. Beckmann has excellent credentials and good feedback.
Be careful about "just" thinking it's the 'wire's?? It certainly is ONE of the main culprits in your case but . . . the Ref Pot could also be worn. There's no rebuilding of that part!
If you do decide to use them to remanufacture your ETA (Electronic Throttle Actuator), then let me know what kind of results you have. I've added this thread and the link to "BBA" into my "ASR" thread (Menu#24). Will post your results.
