Need Some Help Please
Someone messed with my c43s idle adjustment that's below the dashboard and just above the right of the gas pedal. I believe they messed with the cable adjustment in the hood as well.
Can someone please take a picture of the cable that's right above the gas pedal? I want to get an idea of where the round adjuster is sitting. That round adjuster basically turns forward and backward. back/counter clockwise seems to make the car run lean. and turn right rich.
At least that's how I see it so far..
If one of you guys do this for me I will paypal you some funds. I need a picture of the cable above the gas pedal and the cable inside the hood, which are bit one the same I believe?
Hope you guys can do this for me, I don't have the cash to take it to the dealer to have them adjust it. I just need for now a more or less idea where the adjustment should be.
Or if anyone knows how to adjust the cable?
Thank in advance.

I turned it left about one full turn and problem gone. But its not where amg set it to be. Also the tension on the cable in the hood is really really loose, I doubt that's how it should be?

Sorry for been late,, but Honestly:-
it's hard to take some pics. in the paddle area, even if got any pics. in that area, well not tell how correctly adjust,, cause the cable not shown easily from
the bottom side,, if you try to adjust the round cable connector only,, it well not positively know if the adjustable well be correct, it needs to adjust it
while the MB Star operating, to see if the signal from the acc. sensor goes correctly to the Throttle, to gives the exact open butterfly from the peddle
act.........
