Hi, i was wondering if anyone has ever come into this problem....on my 300se I recently had the transmission replaced and had the car sit for several months after. Upon Starting the car (via Jumpstart) my gauges and dont work...along with the lights on the guages as well..my tilt steering and mirrors also stopped working....all fuses check ok...anyone have any suggestions?</P>

Hi, check the fuse in the top of the overvoltage protection relay, located in the firewall at the base of the windshield, it could have blown during the jump. Sounds like a bad (i.e. corroded) ground, though. </P>


Check the fuses in the fuse box: some of mine were corroded on the ends where they make contact and acted as if they were blown. I will research and pass anything else along.</P>
