Possibly a 86' 420sel
Whats this light

I have a 1986 420SEL

What is the light in between the SRS and the O2 Sensor light.

It comes on and goes off like all the other lights as soon as I start the car up.

The o2 sensor light never comes on.

The SRS light had already gone off.

Any guesses would be great.

I just saw a clip of someone with a w126 and actually there was a symbol representing some sort of air or hydraulic suspension either only for the front or both the front or rear. maybe yours is blank because it doesn't have that option. I would like to know more about that suspension though! was it an option? ony euro?

I imagine that the bulb holder for the O2 sensor accidentally got put in that hole. I have seen it before. -Zach
