4 cylinder application

  • uses inj 5-6-7-8 for INJ
  • two IGBT: Q1 & Q3
  • one MOSFET soldered instead of IBGT for clutch solenoid
  • INJ3 with fly-back for boost control solenoid

M104

  • three IGBT: Q1, Q3 & Q5

FAQ

Would this work on my all original Mercedes?

Hellen 128 was originally designed for M111 swaps into W201. Depending on the year some W202, R170 and other models could be driven with different amount of supporting mods:

  • Somewhere around 99 Mercedes has transitioned from just plain wires on C40 and D3 to CAN-bus starter security. For those later models one would have simplify starter wiring and add a start button

  • And obviously your engine harness should use this ME 2.0 style of plug not this 134 pin style of plug.

Changelog

rev B

  • better provisions for high-current control of supercharger clutch solenoid on 5 M111
  • ignition fuse changed from 36915000000 5A to 2010-T10A0V2T11192AM5G 10A. 0697H9100-02 could be use for refitting of rev A

rev A

  • good to drive, great success!

Spare Parts

ISL9V3040S3S is the large IGBT driver (same thing as ISL9V3040S3ST)

Smaller NGD8201AN or ISL9V3040D3ST could probably be used as well.
