    C204 2012 - exterior lights switch - bulb blown or not?

    At night, on my exterior lights switch panel, the knob itself and the foglights button are illuminated, whilst the half-circle section showing the different knob position symbols is not. It looks odd to me as it is the only part of the dash that is not lit, and I think I'm noticing it for that...

    Measuring light bulb (blown or not blown)

    Please bear with me as electricity and even more so electronics are not my favourite cup of tea... I have two bulbs in my w202 c43 dash which are not working, so probably blown.

    Sidelight bulb, you'd think it would be easy to change !!

    I've just had to replace the nearside sidelight bulb on my w221 S-class. What a job! I previously managed to change a dipped beam bulb by moving the screenwash reservoir and squeezing my hand in. No such luck with sidelight bulb. I had to jack up the car, remove the wheel and take off the arch...

    w211 number plate bulb recommendations

    I suppose given the amount of time I drive at night, they always seem to keep blowing (every couple of months or so) - both bulbs and LED types. The LED ones looks like they burn out somehow, when taken out there looks like brown/black marks on around the circuit board. Can anyone...
