Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: 83 300SD Instrument Cluster (Phase 1)

 

    It's been a while since I've been in there, but I believe that when I had the dash binnacle out of my '81 300SD (126) it was an electric oil pressure guage.  I know that I expect to have to undue the oil tube when working on the dash of ANY year 123.  But I believe that all of the 126s are electric gauge. 

 

    Maybe Tom Hansen can chime in with the truth.

I had that problem with my 87 300SDL. Just needed to reconnect the wire
on the oil filter housing and it was good to go. Thought hers was the
same as our which actually sends oil into the passenger compartment! to
the gauge cluster. But thinking now it is the electric version. Surely
some later mid 80's W126 driver will chime in.
