I probed further. One leaky locking line affects the fuel flap door AND the hatch lock. Can anyone with a 300TD W123 wagon please explain how ONE leaking lock circuit can (when plugged) disable TWO downstream locks? The other pair of leaking lines (one lock, one unlock) lines head across the floor from the front PS foot well, turn R toward the engine and then pass up and through the grommet to the master lock in the driver's door. I need to inspect inside the door panel to see what's going on.
