I'm curious too, how you know the battery is good.
I agree with others suggesting cleaning contacts etc, though how about a
jump, to see if that works.
Try the easy stuff first.

Better yet, I’d take a battery out of another car and put it in there. Jumping across a questionable battery can give the same click click.

I know it’s a pain to swap batteries; I have a 1961.  Bill in Oregon

Hello again everyone. My 1965 190 D will not start. Battery is good. The dash lights up but it does not start. It clicks once and doesn't rev at all. Help!

Re: RE: [diesel_mercedes] 1965 190d wont start

 

The battery was tested and is good. My husband left the key in with the dome light on overnight so a few days later I started it and moved it out of the garage to clean it. Then when I went to put it back it had no power to get up the hill and I kept killing it. About three tries later and it wouldn't even try to turn over. So I thought battery. We charged it. Still nothing

Start easiest (cheapest) to check and work up.

Did this just happen with no warning?

How old is your battery? A battery can fail at any time in its life.

Clean all connections and cable ends.

Nate will have suggestions about locating a starter; starters can be rebuilt, Bill in Oregon
