[diesel_mercedes] Vacuum Trunk Lock

 



The white pie is for the vacuum reservoir , the green one is the unlock circuit and the yellow one with the red stripe is the locking circuit .

Try all three before giving up because who knows what boob screwed things up in the last 30 years.....

Before drilling , maybe have a locksmith take a look at it ? .

Once opened it's easy to remove the lock cylinder proper .

Silly question : have you removed the rear seat , disconnected the green vacuum pipe and applied vacuum to it whilst some one tries opening the trunk ? .

Mike Asked  :

I was thinking because I cannot open the trunk (its locked) on my 77280SE about taking the lock from my 71 220D and installing it on the 77 280SE.  Does anyone know if the lock is compatible?

Because you can't lift up the back seats and no amount of lubricating oil has worked I am at the point of drilling the lock out.

Thanks and your good thoughts are appreciated!

Mike
