I have a 1992 300ce and i was informed last week by the mechanic that the wiring harness is cracking and peeling. After reading the many complaints about their wiring harness causing a fire i am concern. The problem that i am having is the car alarm, radio, and left headlight socket plug is damage due to electrical fault. I am considering replacing the wire harness.
I bought the car used.... I now know why the man was so eager to sell at such a reasonable price. Car continues to stall on me, after letting it sit and cool for approx. 20+ mins it will usually start. On one occasion the car seemed to be on fire, by the time i got pulled over, there was just a lot of smoke. After driving the car for anything over 5-10 mins it smells as if it were on fire.
