I need help with my 94 e320 , started the car placed it in neutral turned it off left the key in the ignition, placed the bolts on the carlsson (finally found the right size thanks for the forum,was able to buy it in ezaccessory) went back in to start the car to put it back to park engine won't turn, abs srs lights on everything except a buzzing sound in the main relay box, I tried locking and unlocking the doors and trunk, still no turning, noticed the fuel and temp gauge won't go up but everything is working(radio a/c ,temp fans) called in my mechanic to check the nss which was just replaced by PO a few months back,jump the start it turned(starter is ok) we went inside the hood check all fuses and relay seems fine visually), I need some help guys, I just installed the coolant sensor Ch92 yesterday, and ran the car I was happy with the temp and auxiliary fan seems to turn on ok, (this could have not made the glitch on the ignition problem do you?, thanks in advance

Try starting it in neutral, or wiggle the shifter while the key is in the "starter" position. Could be the "new" neutral safety switch going out.

Carefully inspect all the fuses. Sometimes a fuse developes a hairline crack and then the electrical system acts weird. The first clue of the fuse problem is usually a humming or buzzing sound from the fuse panel.
