Go back to the fuse box and use a test light to see if both ends of each fuse show current ~ don't waste a moment cleaning old fuses , they're cheap so buy all new copper strip ones from any M-B , BMW , VW or Porsche Shop .
After every fuse is working O.K. then move on .
Additional fuses in InLine holders is usually a cheap fix for melted fuse connections in the original fuse box , test them all carefully BEFORE you touch anything because a poorly connecting fuse will often show current just after you touch it but not for l9ng .

A new to me 84 300D
I've straightened out a few things.
One electrical item was rear brake lights was just a fuse.
I took all the fuses out and lightly filed the ends to get a best connection.
I can't get any power to the turn signals, dash lights, no antenna action, rear passenger window does not activate.

I found two wires with fuses inline that are set aside at the fuse box, I can see they would be add on and I think that would make one the alarm system.
I see the alarm system and a red bulb sticking out of the dash underside cover but no light inside it, just an empty red shell.
I plugged the two wires into fuses but it did not help the turn signals.
I picked up an additional turn switch and cluster but installing them helped nothing.
The only thing I can think is that there is a short in the wiring that has caused this.
Anyone with any ideas? additional fuses to check?
