I have a '95 MB W140/S500 sedan and (mfg 6/95) and
I am trying to replace the driver door mirror assembly
but I ran into a roadblock....the wires do not match!
The replacement mirror has to connectors while the
original mirror is "hardwired." They both have 11 wires but although Most of the wires are colored the same I
have a slight variation as follows:
NEW OLD
Reddish Pink Same
Yellow/White trace "
Yellow/Green trace "
* Brown (1) Brown 14 or 16 ga
* Red (1) Brown 20 ga
Black/Red trace Same
Gray "
White "
Black "
Green "
Yellow "

Can you help?
Thanks
Jeff

The only way to find out is for me to know what year the new mirror is? I have diagram for the 95.

The replacement mirror was removed from another
1995 MB S500. Everyone I've talked to regarding
this wiring issu0e say they have never seen a MB
S500 mirror wired without using connectors and all
OEM replacement mirrors are sold with connectors.

The other option you have is to buy another mirror?
