It is not present on manual cars. I bought a new lock assembly from mercedes and put it in my car (W202, 1995, only slightly different to the one shown in the video). After I discovered that my car starts again but will not let me move the gear selector out of the parking position, I got back to the mercedes dealership. Only an older mechanic could tell me, that you need to take the parts out of the old lock assembly and put it into the new one. I did not notice it, because on my new lock the ignition switch was already premoumted. And who would tear down their new part before installing?
Can you do a video - how take apart and re-key Mercedes 126 ignition tumbler? Thanks. Nice video.
@@Hugo_Furst I don't have one
@@Hugo_Furst but I think same steps
Nice but where’s the blue and white plastic cam inside the housing that activates the gear shift?
