Behind the battery, against the bulkhead under a plastic cover. It has a fuse on top.

Well at least that is where mine is on my 95 W124 estate.

Yes its there on all 124's, but it will not be the problem,,,the speed signal needs to be checked on the passenger side kick panel on the green/ yellow wires, and I think green/ black on pin A9 on the cluster

Found it and the 10amp fuse was blown replaced it now rev counter works. But now the glowplug light on dash does not come on, car starts as usual considering there's a broken glow plug . Any suggestions as to the glowplug light now not coming on.

Thank you,,, then you should have many more benefits and the engine running better as that was blown :D

Yes engine appeared to fire up quicker ? Do you know what else this fuse would be related to.

ABS,ASR, if you have those things, engine management on the later cars.
