LH Module

So my fuel relay is clicking, and I’m needing a new LH Module.
Does anyone have a lead on one, or possibly somewhere to send in for repair?

Thanks!

I’m at the same crossroad. Any mom and pop electronics repair store can recap it. Or for roughly the same price get a soldering station kit off Amazon ( not Harborfreight) and some caps. Practice on some junk around the house, and voila! Just a matter of convenience. At this point in time, any used ones are aging out too.

I have already found a replacement, but I will be attempting at doing exactly this with the original unit!
 
I dd the cap replacement job. It was not complicated. Unfortunately I don't know if it worked because I discovered that my spare LH was for a W140, not my E420, and doesn't function exactly the same so I can't test it.

Bottom line: Go for it. Just take your time and be careful.
 
An LH fuel injection computer should work with any compatible/equivalent engine/chassis, meaning an E420/400E LH should work fine with a W140 4.2-liter engine. Same with the 5.0 liter LH engines in the 129, 124 and 140. MB has superseded the LH units down to a single unit nowadays for all chassis anyway (one for the 4.2 and one for the 5-liter variants).

Of course there are WOT and non-WOT variants of each LH unit, but the WOT units haven't been avaialble for quite some time.
 
Note that the 124.034 still requires a different, specific module due to relay K29/1 which is unique to that chassis. Weird shifting stuff happens otherwise, unless you also delete K29/1...
