🚗🔧 In today’s video, I dive deep into the no-spark issue on my 560SL, troubleshooting every component from the ignition coil to the crankshaft position sensor. Watch as I uncover the root cause step-by-step—no guesswork, just methodical testing. Whether it’s the EZL, coil, wiring, or CPS, I'll show you how to test each part without unnecessary replacements. All you need is a multimeter, a 12V power supply, and, of course, two Yellow Lab assistants for a good ground! Don’t spend money on parts until you've watched this!

You need a digital multimeter. I suggest it include the ability to test using Duty. The one I used in this video has this feature. The exact one I am using was not available, but this is the upgraded version:
