300E ABS + Traction ECU Problems

[45921]

Hi All

Newbie with problems.

Hope someone can help me as so far my hands-on investigations into my problem has meant things have gone from bad to worse.

It all started with the ABS dash light coming on on my 1997 300E (210) diesel. This would then mean no speedo, cruise control and obviously the ABS and traction.

Tested the ECU (modulon) and found although power reading going in there was no power out to the controller. Gave it a good soaking with WD40 just in case and went to re-install it.

HOWEVER in testing I removed the back of the plugs which feed it and now I don't know which wires go where in each plug (well I can work most out from the way they are shaped but can't be sure on a lot of them. Didn't want to risk trial and error incase I did more damage.

Wondered if anyone could post a photo of the inside of their plugs, (really just the E numbered one would probably do) or a wiring diag. for dummies.

The modulon is Merc part No. A210 54504 32 TE

Cheers

Tony

I don't think you can get them in the wrong way.

Does your car have a OVP relay. you have lost a speed signal somewhere, is the ABS light on when you start the car.

I don't think you can get them in the wrong way.

Unfortunatly you can if you take the plug appart

Hi Television
Sorry to be so thick but what is an OPV and where would I find it?
The ABS light is on from start up when I do have problems, however all can come back up and be working properly when driving (after breifly displaying a warning triangle).
Main problem now is the wiring to the modulon plug as without it being connected the car won't start

Still after the correct wiring for the plugs on the modulon :-(
Anyone local to Bristol with a diesel 300e that would let me have a look at theirs?

Managed to get the car to run and replaced the brake switch which cured the lack of speedo etc for all of two days then back to being broke :-(

Any suggestions?
