MB 300 CE Problems to start!!!!
 

I was driving my MB 300 CE 1992, and suddenly turned off by itself, all the system. 2 0r 3 seconds later the dashboard lights automatically turned on. I tried start my carr again but nothing. only cranks and cranks.

I checked the fuse box located on the dirvers fender, (I dont know if there are some more important fuses to check). all them ok.

Then I checked the coil witn a tester, it receives power but apparently dont send enough power to the distributor. I changed distributor cab, rotor and tried with a similar coil... the problem is still there.

I already replaced the crankshaft sensor, camshaft sensor, but the distributor not receive spark from coil....

I tied with a used CIM too, but my car not start, I dont believe the 2nd CIM is damage too, but could happen.

ok.. I did all possible by myself. Something else I can try????



If this can help, 1 month ago my cylinder key was stuck. I replaced all the ignition lock system for a used one. the diference is that the conector has 7 pins and the original has 8 pins. but the car was working for around 15 days...

Find out for sure if the problem is lack of spark or lack of fuel.
Fuel pump relay a strong possiblity, very common.

Thanks. im going to check the fuel pump relay.

Get in there and wiggle them. My daughter's car was doing the same thing and getting really bad. I had here come over, wiggled them and re pressed them down. No problem since. Good luck!
