Archived from groups: alt>auto>mercedes (more info?)

Hello. Can someone please help? I parked the car 2 months ago after putting a
lower control arm on it and was saving for tires, brakes and a front end
alignment. I made an appointment at the tire and alignment shop to have the
work done and the car would not start. It ran fine when I parked it. I can
pour fuel in the carb and start it and it will run until it burns the fuel up.
I am not getting power to the fuel pumps (there are 2 of them) i checked with
a test light. If I need to check anything, please be sure to tell me where
the gadgets are located. I am having a hard time finding the gadgets on this
car.
1993 190e automatic trans. 114000K . Please help if you can.

There's a fuel pump relay that powers the fuel pumps. That relay is
probably the cause of the problem. You should know that these relays get
tired and need to be replaced as they become intermittent after about 15
years use. As to where the relay is located, others here will have to
tell you.

You may be able to trick it into action by charging the battery to full
charge and switching the ignition ON and OFF until you hear the fuel
pumps run THEN crank the motor.

The 190 relais set is mounted in the fuse box on the left side of the
motor compartment. The fule pump relais is the second largest nr 155 in

Attention!!
The Fuel Pump Relay 8the one numbered 155 in the figure) in not in the
fuse box, but in the opposite side of the motor compartment, behind the
battery. There, you will find a plastic panel that separates the battery
from the relay zone. Relays that lies here are the ASD Relay, the Fuel
Pump and the Klima relay. All they receive some signal from some sensors
from many parts of motor.
You can verify if the problem is the fuel pump relay, attaching a led
diode between the Pin 87 of the relay and the ground. You need to put a
820 ohm resistence among the catode and the ground.
If the led turns off while the motor stops, 95% the problem depends from
the relay.
Think that the relay receive also a RPM signal that is divided between
fuel pump Relay (TD pin), the ASD relay and the tachimeter. If this
signal is abnormal the relay enter in 'protection mode' and the engine
stops.

Hope this can help
