Hello Guru's,

I have just purchased a 1997 C280 that cuts off completely from time to time. It has happened 3 times in 3 weeks. Once coming to a stop, next at 45 MPH and the 3rd was at 10-15 MPH.

I read all of the posts and bought the replacement for the 0005405245 Overload Protection Relay; 000 540 6745.

I opened the hood and removed both plastic covers from each side....no OVP that looks anything like the one I bought.

One post says it is behind the battery. My battery is in the trunk.

I am really hopeful this will fit the poblem as a $2,000 wiring harness is not in the cards for me at this time!

Thanks,

Dave
