[W126 Coupe] headlight stalk

[Mike R.]

RJS & Dan,

Yep - Mercedes calls the headlight flasher system an "optical horn", which
is the name used on the fuse designation paper in the fuse panel. In my '87
SEC, it's fuse #17. 

 

Take off the lower cladding on the dashboard and there is a large plug that
is the connector from the stalk to the car wiring. From memory (a chancy
business, fur shur) I think it's the one in the picture. Someone smarter
(with a better memory) can verify.

 

Later,

Mike R.

Aha! Think "flash-to-pass" headlight flashers

Never argue with a dragon, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
