Door handle removal on 1996 E300 W210. Pre IR in the door latch.
I pulled the door panel off per a mercedes instruction video and am currently epoxying all the plastic mounts for the snaps back on.
But I can't get to the back of the handle. The problem is that when I put my key in and turn it I get NO RESISTANCE. It doesn't spin around 360 degrees. it just feels like it's moving nothing. So, I'm hoping a little do-hicky in the there needs to be reattached to a the handle. I read the peachparts instructional, but it wants me to remove the air bag rivets to get to the IR actuator that I don't have because I don't have IR in the door handle. Any advice or a link to a vid? Last edited by ChrisArnt; 07-21-2017 at 06:25 PM.

If I'm understanding your post you just need to remove the outside handle, not the latch. There is a rod that is held to the door tumbler with a roll pin. This pin gets worked loose and then you have the symptom you describe.

and that sounds about right. How do I reattach it? Also, is this one of those things that I take off and can't put back on because I need to do the hokey pokey just right? These are the holes on the door circled.

The hole behind the door seal inline with the door lock tumbler has access to a torx bolt (or possibly a 4mm allen) that retains the tumbler. With the torx loose, (the torx screw isn't supposed to come out, just loose) the tumbler should wiggle out. You are supposed to have to turn the lock with the key to get the tumbler out but with the rod that connects the tumbler to the latch loose, it will just come out. Reattach the rod with a small cotter pin if the roll pin is completely missing. You will need to turn the lock with the key while reinstalling the tumbler to get the rod to engage the latch.

Its pretty much on the money. this guy's pin was actually broken and he ground down a bolt to fabricate the part. This is the exact lock on my early 1996 E300 https://youtu.be/ZPvn2cMkVno Last edited by ChrisArnt; 07-22-2017 at 04:28 PM.
