Cut cable - is it a distronic harness? AMG GT R

Hello,

I have a problem because I am rebuilding my Mercedes AMG GT R after an accident, I found one cable that was cut. I think it's to the distronic. Can anyone confirm my thesis? In the Mercedes dealership they don't know and don't want to help. Additionally, when I was able to find the number of this cable, it cannot be ordered.
I add photos and ask for help. Maybe someone knows where I can buy something like this?

Hi,

It would be good if you remove something from the case so that you can see the cable colors better.
You should find the other end too. Where is that?

According to what I see, it can be for the Distronik (sits in the middle of the front support).

Cable colors (only one plug) Distronik:

Pin 8:
red 0.75mm² -> 12V (15 / ignition on) fuse no. f 29 (10A) in front SAM

Pin 1:
Brown 0.75mm² -> ground (31 / ground) -> ground point Z36z2

Pin 2:
Green / white 0.35mm² -> CAN E1 high --> distributor. X30 / 30

Pin 3:
Green 0.35mm² -> CAN E1 Low --> distributor. X30 / 30


Tip: If you have to extend / Repair the can lines. Solder not squeeze. And twist the lines together.


Best regards

Stenzel

I would call red, brown, green and green as good circumstantial evidence it's for the Distronic. Stenzel, do you know of anywhere else in the wiring harness with that combination of colors?

Hi,

Not in this place.


I don't know by heart either and have to look it up in the WIS.

Looking through all GT circuit diagrams is a life's work. LOL


Best regards
