WOW, your solution worked like a charm and I sure do appreciate it!

Thank goodness for this forum and your sage advice!

I had found similar queries to mine on the internet, and various solutions included locking the doors for an hour or disconnecting the battery. Tried both, no luck. So I wasn't expecting much when I read your reply, but you were right. Held the button "up" for about 20 seconds and suddenly heard a different 'click' and, BINGO, everything is fine now. Top goes up, seatbacks are down, and it hasn't even rained yet!

So, while I have you -- dare I ask about two more problems I've endured a long time on my 1994 e-320 W124?

1. Passenger-side seat belt system: If I leave the belt unlocked, the assist arm keeps moving in and out. Sometimes it will be quiet for several days, but eventually it starts acting up again, in-out, in-out. (Or as my wiseacre son says, "Sieg Heil, Sieg Heil!") The only way to curtail this annoyance is to keep the belt locked in place, as if a passenger was belted in. In fact, if I use the belt from the back seat to click in the front, it stops, too. I assume there's a sensor or relay that needs replacing -- but where is it located?

2. No High Speed Wiper: My wipers work OK except on High Speed. Intermittent works fine, as does Normal. But when I click up to High speed, it remains at Normal speed. It's been doing this since I bought the car at 35 MM (now has 108 MM on it). I replaced the Combo switch two years ago; no change. Two weeks ago, I had the windshield replaced (a wild turkey smashed into me at 75 mph!) and had the wiring checked at that time; no problem seen but still no High speed. Any suggestions?

Once again, I thank you for your prompt and wise reply re the rollover mechanism reset!
