87 300E hard to start since instrument pa
 
PLeeeeeeeease someone help me. I know this is something stupid and simple I caused. I pulled out the instrument panel to change my guage faces to white..when I hooked everything back up and put it back in, the car DOES NOT want to strat..it WILL, but it doesn't want to.!!! What crucial wire did I knock lose? What is back there that got disturbed that has to do with starting the car? PLEASE HELP. Don't want to spend big bux at mechanic when it's something simple. THANK YOU!!!

man I'm stumped, I can't think of any connections back there that will cause a starting problem. I would remove it again and see what's up back there though because it sounds like that's the only thing you disturbed before your starting problems began......or is it??

<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">I think you have burned the fuse of the relay, it is locatee behind the battery, under the plastic cover wall.It is orange box the size 2x1x2",it hard to take it out without removing the battery,butpossible. On top cover of the relaythere is 10Ampsfuse inside. Check it out and let's me know if that is the case. mercedesforums@groupbui.com</P>
