Don't know about the merc one though

Yes sure,, MB uses that auto sensor switch #: "006 545 15 24", since "92", in many models......

I have completely removed the shifter from my car and taken the shifter apart and have no idea what could cause this , it makes no sense
AHA!


He explains the problem with it. Still don't totally understand how a rusted arm could cause this if it's all electronic, but at least that solves the question of what the problem with the tranny was.
