W140 Door Closing Mech
 

Hi,
Last Week I Washed My Car In Cold Weather, That Night The Temperature Went Down To Minus 8, The Following Morning The Car Was Covered In Thick Ice. I Couldn't Get The Doors Open, But Eventually Did, Since Then The Drivers Door Closing Mechanism Has Stoppped Working, All The Other Doors And Boot Lid (trunk) Are Fine Can Any One Tell Me What It Might Be.
Many Thanks
Lester.

The pump has "logic" if it can not complete the cycle in two tries it disables that door. I would pull fuse #9 and possibly #3 to reset the pump.

Those fuses are located in the trunk fuse panel usually on the right hand side.

and then when that doesn't work SLAM HARD!:silly:

Many thanks Peter,
I pulled fuses 3 and 9 and the door now closes as it should, problem solved by this Informative Web Forum
