I Need a New Pneumatic Vacuum Pump Motor
The motor inside the PSE control unit on my 2002 CLK55 is completely dead. I see motors on eBay for other units, but not for the W208 CLK. These things are crazy expensive, even a used one runs about a hundred bucks. What are my options for repairing or replacing the unit?

OK, I looked a little harder on eBay and found a bunch for under a hundred bucks. I guess it's not that big a deal after all.

The coding will be different for the used unit. It will require star for re coding.
I have successfully replaced the internal motor pump assembly internal to the unit. Hence no re coding required.
Only two wires color coded to crimp. If the used pump is loud or has black dusty stains it is likely short lived as well.
Bone yard searching for newer C class has worked for me.

Thanks Gator,
I got the cleanest looking pump I could find on Ebay, and it only cost me $50. I got it installed today and hooked up STAR and disabled all the stuff I am stripping out of this car, like the lumbar seats, headrests, and alarm. I cleared the fault memory and everything seems to be working fine, except ONE thing. When I use the door lock/unlock button on the dash, the passenger door doesn't lock/unlock. The driver's door works fine, and the passenger door works fine when I lock or unlock using the key remote. Any ideas?
