Location of OVP relay
 
Hi, I have a 1985 380SL and it seems to be having all the same problems a lot of you described with the anti-lock light on and running rough. Problem is, i can't seem to locate the OVP relay on it. Does anyone know where the box is that it is in. Thanks for the help.

The OVP relay on your car is located above the fuse box inside the car.

Thank you for such a quick response. I found where you are talking about, however, I found 5 relays in all. Three in a row more towards the door, and two were more towards the engine. I pulled out two of them, but they seemed fine. Would it be a certain one? The ones I pulled were 20amp if thats any help. Is there anyway to test the part to see if its bad. I was told to shake it and see if I heard a rattle, is that correct.

Anti lock light comes on
 
The fuse on the OVP relay in my 85 380sl has a 10 amp fuse. It does rattle when I gently shake. Where do I locate ABS computer fuse?

rpm55 is correct. the relay should be red on the top. the fuse is inside the relay and i think its 30 amp.
as to a ovp with the red 10 amp spade fuse they will rattle. there is a fiber board inside that insulates the circuit board from the housing and its loose and will make a noise.
