clock, trunk light, roof lights, diagnostic, switch-over valve seat back arrestor, hazard warning system, auto antenna, illum. vanity mirror, warning monitor term. #5, (electronic radio)
The only things I can tell that have been done to this fine car is a kenwood stereo was put in, but I think this problem is more recent than that.
Also, what is a "switch-over valve seat back arrester"?
Thank you

Antenna motor is notorious for sticking on trying to perpetually lower the antenna. Pull the wire from it in the trunk and see if that's your problem.
