Any ideas on multiple issues - 1987 420SEL out of storage.
I've had my 1987 420SEL stored for two years. Used fuel stabilizer when I put her away.
Put the battery in, and ran the pump for a short while, cranked it, and started right up, and ran fine. That's the good news. New Problem 1: The radio used to work. Now it does not even turn on. Fuse 2 has power at both ends. Where do I start? New Problem 2: I started it at least 4 times over 4 days and let it run while I did other things. The 5th time - no crank. Everything else is ok. Up until after the 4th start, I had not put it into any gear but park and nuetral. So I am thinking the NSS has gone south, but it won't start in either park or nuetral. I climbed under the car and it does not appear broken. But it does not look easy to remove. How do I check the NSS without removing it? Where are the solenoid connections so I can jump the starter to make sure the solenoid is ok? What is the switch replacement procedure? New Problem 3: While checking #2 fuse in problem 1, I found fuse #1 blown. This is for the aux fan in front of the condenser. I replaced the fuse. Now the fan is on always when the key is on, even with the AC off and the engine cold. Could this be stuck relay? Which relay is it? Learnings - the only other two issues I had that I could have avoided was to pop the hood often to exercise both the latching mechanisms and the pull strap. First, the hood would not unlatch, and then the starp broke when it did unlatch. I cleaned both latches up and the pivot on the hood strap, and now all works fine. Other than that, I could find no other issues.
