Back headrest lowering button doesn't work...

I pressed it and heard a slightly clicking sound in the back but the headrests still stood up back there...what would be the problem? Or anyway to pull them down manually? Thx.

hold the switch for a longer period...with the engine running...(leaking vacuumhose)

In the pre modelupdated 202s the headrest are controlled by the engine's vacuumsystem in combination with an electrical relays on the reardeck...

I have this exact same problem. If, after holding the button down for some time, nothing continues to happen - can we assume that it is a leaking vacuum hose? Where is the hose located?

Thanks in advance.

erm...depending on whether you have a modelupdated or pre modelupdated 202 you can hear the electrical valve clicking on the rear deck (listen carefully)...

For the pre modelupdated the engine has to run before the headrests can be folded down...

I had the engine running and hold the button for like a minute...nothing happen... Should i assume that the vacuum hose is broken or...?
