help a lady in need of a siemens ecm

dear friends

i have a 1991 300E24, beautiful pearl silver sedan that is my pride and joy. Recently the car stopped mid-ride, discovered the computer (ecu) was irreparably damaged. found a new one at a great store on ebay germany, works like a charm. But my mechanic realized that the reason the ecu blew in the first place was because of a substandard repair job on the ecm (ignition module) which is also now not functioning.

hence: i am now on the hunt for the following ecm (or a compatible one if that exists)

Siemens 5WK6302
Mercedes 012 545 2132 / A 012 545 2032

Does anyone happen to have this part lying around, oh, in a basement somewhere?? Or know someone who might?

Thanks in advance-

Pinky
ps-am glad to forward info on the great ebay germany store that had the ecu i needed

Sorry if I sound a bit suspicious, but you mention the "great German Ebay store", twice.

It sounds like you may be more interested in plugging a supplier than finding a part.

Where are you located, US, Canada, west coast, east coast???

I may have pulled an ECU for a m104 24v, but not sure on the part number. If you turn out to not be a sock I'll go look for it.

Same part used in the R129 300SL.
Search for it not as an ECU or ECM but an ignition control module.

You can try these companies:

Remanufactured:

www.4mercedes.com/igntioncontrolmoduleezl.html

www.autoecu.com


Used
