illumination

Good evening to all, 2003 ML270 (W163), the bulb has blown on the ashtray illumination. Have scoured various forums on this, but cannot find a definite answer on how to replace. There are several horror stories on removing the entire centre console in order to remove the complete ashtray...

A quick question. Should a W124 light up the gear selector position on an auto? I noticed the other night that I can't see where my gear selector is at night. The figures are lit up but shouldn't I be able to see if it's id D or 3, etc? Do W124s have this? My old Rover had a little red...

I yesterday used my w 202 c280 v6 facelift in dark for first time and noticed the main light switch was not illuminated. Should it be and is it easy to fix chaps ??? cheers, Tony.

Hi, I'm trying to locate the part number or even the part i require to change the night time illumination module situated at the back of the interior door handle release. The light is amber and is for the drivers door. S320 2004 model Thanks, Steve...

Guys, I have an S320 w220 2004 model and my drivers door internal handle illumination does not work, it is a little module with an orange illuminated LED I think but not sure. The other three doors illuminate ok and I was thinking of replacing the faulty bit but I do not have the part no...

I have a Mercedes-Benz Audio 10 radio/cassette. It works fine and sounds good, but the display doesn't illuminate when the car's lights are switched on - as it used to do. Is there a bulb in there that can be replaced, and if so, can anyone tell me where to obtain one, please?

Huge title, but I'm in the dark! The exterior light switch, which controls the headlamps, foglamps and suchlike is no illuminated when the switch is on. I realise there is a small mini wedge bulb in the centre of the switch, which presumably should illuminate when the fod lamps are selected...

Just replaced all four on the handles on my s class, did not know i had them until i came across a thread, may be fitted to other models too, have a look for a small round fibre optic bunch held in a white plastic moulding just below handle, real easy job to change (door card off),looks great...

Only just noticed this evening that my new headlamp light switch (fitted when I had the headlamp washers fitted) illuminates!!! All the symbols around the edge illuminate when key in position 1. Turn key to position 2 and the centre 'bulb' symbol and the indicator stripe illuminate as well...

I've noticed that the amber illumination which used to glow warmly inside the centre cup holder is no absent. :( I've also notice that the illuminated hoop which use to glow warmly around the ignition barrell to the right of the steering wheel is also no more. :( I'm not sure if I...

Please help. The illumination of the dual climate control (aircon) panel has failed. The aircon itself is working fine and the switch indicator lights come on. All other control switch and dash cluster illumination is good (and dims as it should). I have checked the fuses and deduce the...

Hi, Does anyone know what bulb is used for the cluster illumination on a 202? Is it a special wattage?

Hello MBClub members, This is my first post and I am hoping some of you might be able to help with a frustrating problem :wallbash:. I purchased a CLK230 W208 back in summer and as I like a tipple in the evenings I did not notice this problem until the winter darkness set in. I have no back...

I drove the car tonight for the first time and it seems the lights (IF any) for the limate are not working, I have the red ones for which buttons are pushed but the LCD has no backlight, should it? And how easy a bulb to change if so?

Does anyone know does the ignition barrel illuminate on the b class ( mine doesn't but wondered if it was faulty ) - just moved from a car with a start button / keyless start so feels weird to have a key but when it's dark really find it difficult to locate the key barrel - thanks :mad:

W211, post-facelift: should the headlamp switch symbols (<P, P>, 0, auto, side, dip) be illuminated? Mine aren't, which seems like an odd omission in such a well-equipped car.

On my first w203 avantgard 2002 I had air vent wheel illumination, on my next W203 Sport edition 2006 there was not wheel illumination. On my recent W164 ,I do have the option 876 and according to WIS it should have vent wheel illumination, but I checked and there is no wiring at all for it ...

Hi, The bulbs have blown on the drivers side (RHS) of the heater controls. The white arrows still illuminate on the switches but the temp selectors don't. Is the wood trim removed by removing the screws behind the ash tray. I did remove them but the wood fascia seemed fixed, could someone...
