Need a part number for C230 2002
Hi All, I searched the thread and could only find the sensor part number I already have: 000 542 84 18. I need the cable/wire that plugs into that part: 000 542 84 18. Anyone have the part number handy, or access to a parts database?
Thanks in advance.
Patrick.

You can't buy the wire separate it's part of the body mounted engine harness. Maybe you can get it repaired if you are lucky or find one from a junked car and cut it off.

Not sure but it looks like it has been replaced by a new part #:
A 007 542 1318
Here is a screen shot from the EPC

503 what vehicle are you looking at in EPC ? I noticed your picture shows a cable next to it, but if you are in his vehicle it will not show it. You may be able to try using this one 203-540-17-33 which I just went to a newer c-class and found it without using the EPCs filtering. This however means it does not apply to the vehicle so it could very well be wrong, but maybe it can be cut and retrofitted onto the harness. It's worth a shot over buying the complete harness.

Thanks for the feedback
So it looks like I cannot buy the wiring for this temp sensor - right. Mine got destroyed by road debris - large truck tire I did not see until too late.
Maybe I can try the suggestion looking at the part from another MB vehicle...

You are correct, in the EPC it states it does not apply to his vehicle

Job done
So I got the new outside Ambient Temp Sensor removed and replaced. These are the other parts I purchased $11 total (not including the sensor):
Part #: 000 540 23 05; 000 540 24 05; 000 545 69 80; 210 540 20 81. Sensor was: 000 542 84 18
Just snipped off the old one and added the new wiring to the remaining wire using the new cable harness and pin bushing.
Thanks to everyone that provided input - much appreciated.
Now I am getting dash board readings that are much closer to the real outside temps.
