Ken Hudson Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Does anyone have the instructions or the link to the steps to replace the gear position sensor for a 1988 240DL? (It may be called something else but it is the sensor that will only allow the car to start if it is in Park or Neutral.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Fat Tigers Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 IIRC it's pretty easy to change: two obvious screws removed to lift up the shifter cover. On the right side of ths shifter assembly there should be two screws at the top of the switch, once those are out, you should be able to lift it up and out. Fish out the connectors and unplug it. When installing the new switch, make sure the U shaped channel on the side of the switch lines up with and engages the pin on the shifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
