1988 E190

I am looking for some suggestions. I just bought a 1988 E-190 and there are a few things wrong with it and I would like to know if any of you out there may have any ideas on how to fix them. I think I have an electrical problem somewhere but I do not know where to begin.

- Driver front and passanger read windows are not working.
- Sun roof opens but does not slides all the way back.
- RPMs are not working
- Odometer is not working
- A/C is not working
- radio and antena is not working

I have checked all of the fuses and these are ok. Any ideas?

Thank you.

oh man, i dont even know where to start...

for the windows, check the switches, sometimes the connectors wear out, other wise, it's the regulator.

you need a new instrument cluster, find one on ebay or go to 190revolution.net and ask potomac pat. (he is a mercedes parts person)

a/c.. sounds like the condenser may need to get replaced, or look at the compressor clutch.

sunroof, it's not supposed to go all the way back, it's supposed to go like 3/4 of the way.

hope that helps.

oh yeah, radio... is it the stock radio? if it is, and it has been removed before, the the codes have been scrambled and needs to be reprogrammed by the stealership. also the antanne, the radio is tied into that..look for the red wire behind the radio, that is the power wire. make sure it's getting power, if not, check to see if the radio motor works.

Be careful when mucking with the sunroof cause it can cause quite a shock to your senses when the physics kicks in and it explodes outward at 85 mph!
