I have searched and read many threads on the subject (here and globally) but my issue I believe is a little different.
I have been having an issue with the eyeglass compartment. The PO installed an aftermarket HU and used the compartment to house the iPod with the cord entering the compartment from the rear. I‘m aware of the adjustments with the screws inside/back of the compartment and two weeks ago on my day off had planned to completely remove, adjust, and reinstall the compartment.
Just prior to staring the removal ‘for kicks’ I again used the key to run through the different positions in the locking mechanism (adjacent to the eyeglass compartment) and all of a sudden the release button was working perfectly so I crossed that item off my to do list and moved on. I assumed it was operator error on my part.
This morning as I was leaving for work I was going to grab the iPod out of the SL to update for a road trip tomorrow only to find that the eyeglass compartment is locked again. Even after running through the different key positions (I can hear everything else locking and unlocking) it is not opening. I did nothing to the vehicle or the compartment to cause this other than close the compartment door.
Could this be a vacuum issue?
What am I missing?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
