Headrests Front and Rear

Greetings all! Just picked up a 2003 E500 that appears to have been very well maintained. Runs very well. However, the front head restraints are inoperable, and the rear do not pop up or down. Buttons for these seem dead. Is there possibly a fuse, or vacuum hose, or God forbid a module or servo that can be at fault? Is there a schematic?

Any help is appreciated!

Try removing front & rear headrests then re-install, see attachments.

Thanks, KT. I was hoping it was an issue central to both front headrests since neither work. Appears I'll have to disassemble per your .pdfs to find out..
