Drains Cleaned
Said bye bye to the siren ( solved some parasitic draw issues )
Amp is unplugged ( solved some MORE parasitic draw issues )
TCM connectors are now corrosion free and juiced up with a bit of dielectric grease.

I can see the gear numbers on the dash indicator now at least until it shifts into 2nd and stays there until I restart the car. ( My spider senses tell me a new Conductor plate is in my immediate future )
Anyone know if im correct in assuming that the Conductor plate for our cars do NOT need reprogramed like some of the other Mercedes transmissions because the TCM is external?
