Wrong forum.

Anyways, it doesn't even crank? Probably the Engine Control Module. If you are out of warranty, then this is $$$.

BTW .. techncially it does not have to be a wrong forum. The production list shows that here was 1 (ONE) example of W140 S500 (LWB) still assembled in 2000. So who knows...

Haha, they made a few special order armored ones after that, as it takes a while for them to come out with the armored one of the new model, notice the 221 guard was only issued about halfway through this year.
