Can't start my 240DL 200 1990

One guy jumps on the fuel pump relay first thing. Another the underhood fuse holder by the battery. Still another says check the CPS. All bona fide and common reasons for no-start-- but how do you rule them out?

Use the time honored way. Prove there is spark. Prove there is fuel. Pull a plug or two and use your nose and eyesight. Crank with a plug laying on the cam cover & observe. No spark, no fuel pumps. Probably the 25A fuse or the CPS.

Use the on board diagnostics. The little box gadget on the left shock tower. Use the 700/900 FAQs to learn how it works - 'tis the same as a 240.
