WOW. W140 doors & trunk wont shut, rear driving antenas stuck
Today as just as I parked the car in my house, I saw that the rear driving "antenas"-used for easier parking (pre '96 W140) were stuck, i.e. didnt return to they original position (inside) even though I had the tranmission in Park, and they("antenas") only stick out when the tranny is on Reverse. I oppened the trunk to see how can I get to them and when tried to close the trunk (my W140 has the close assist system that pulls the doors and the trunk when shut) it wouldnt close. There is a handle that gets out from the trunk's lid located just above the licence plates that sticks out when the button for opening the trunk is pressed. When I pressed the trunk opening button after manually turning the metal part inside the lock, it should have released the the handle but it didnt.
Another think I realised was that when trying to close the doors by pressing the lock button on remote locking control the doors wouldnt lock.
Is this some kind of a fuse problem or is it worse than that.
Thanks
If anyone can help please do it faster since I cant lock the trunk I tie it with thin rope, and it is really embarrasing.
