The AC pump does not cycle so its also dead. the heater works great.. so the car does not over heat which is weird but it still cold here and it is not driven just idling because I gotta get these things fixed before it will pass inspection. also noticed the radiator light is on and also the light monitor is on and all the lights work. . this car runs great but with all the stuff I read on the forums I wonder if I bought a money pit.. I always wanted one of these and got it cheap $1700 with 146,000. its in pretty good shape for its age. it belonged to an older black Lady who smoked wish she had not smoked trying to get that smell out. its also a 6 speed runs great . I need some help if anyone knows about these issues. this is my first Chrysler and Mercedes LOLOL Im soon to be 60 and always wanted one of these since they came out but couldn't afford it then but maybe its still gonna cost me with all these problems . it was once a loved car now Im wanting to love it again. is there anyone in Maryland who knows about these cars, thanks
