Factory Splices on 2010 S630 with Pilot controls

MBF ยท 2015-06-19 12:31

Just left the dealer after discussing an intermittent problem with S630 throwing Codes D7501 & W3276 and then the drive stops. Service manager showed me an old harness from a similar machine and said the factory spices were just wires pressed together and covered with heat shrink. I couldn't believe it until I saw it. Stated even if I replaced the harness that it would eventually have the same issue. Wondering if anyone has ever pulled the harness and just replaced each "pressed splice" with a real comression shell splice? Thanks Ken Urbana, OH

    Solder would be preferable, which is what should have been done at the factory. Pressed splice, ain't modern technology wonderful?
