lamp

My Mum's 211 flagged up the bulb failure message for front right indicator lamp. On wriggling the light fitting around in the socket, the bulb came on so it's a dodgy connection. I pulled the lamp socket out, and sure enough, one of the contacts is all black and dirty. So I replaced...

hi all, im new to this forum and need of serious help. Brought my C200k (2002, 51 reg) 8 months ago all was good/ fine until last monday when the engine indiator lamp came on. There wasnt any problem with the engine what so ever, all previous services done by previous owners only the 'B'...

Both fog lamp lenses are cracked and I have bought the glass and today attempted to change . My question is " How do you remove the fog lamp on the nearside as the washer wipe water bottle is placed so close that there is not enough room to remove the lamp " Regards Mark

Hi Folks, First thing in the morning the preglow indicator lamp on my 55 reg W203 C320 diesel illuminates after the engine has started. I can start the engine from cold in the normal way. However, once the engine has started the lamp then comes back on for about a minute before it goes out...

Hi my ml 270cdi 2001 has the BAS ,ESP,ETS light on. i have gone to the dealers and was advised its a common fault on the ml. they sold me the switch for £11 and i have replaced it but the lights are still on. I have gone to get it diagonised with a benz specialist and they picked up c1025-002...

I've just tried to get at my number plate lamps to change them but I can't get to them, need advice please. There's a strip above the number plate which I assume holds them in. It has 4 screws fastening this strip to the boot. It looks likethis strip is removed to allow access to them...

Hello - I have a 1998 S320 with what I believe is a factory fitted alarm. Recently the lamp on the dash that tells me the alarm is armed has started to illuminate whilst driving. sometimes it stays on for two or three minutes, other times it just flashes on and off again. The alarm still...

Recently bought my C220 Cdi, very pleased with it. But the nearside mirror indicator lens strip was cracked/broken. Bought a replacement from MB, very reasonable, but cannot see how to fit it!! The parts dept man said to carefully peel back the smooth external cover....but its totally rigid and...

Hi. Hope someone can help me with this bizarre problem. I have just upgraded my rather tired W202 C200 estate to an 02 C200K Avantgarde estate. All is good with the car apart from 2 glitches: 1. When i switch on the lights it is displaying 2 malfunctions which are F/L Marker bulb and F/R Marker...

...anyone know what this means?

1. OBD 2. Can you recommend a reputable indie in Brighton area? So I now have a little amber light at the bottom right of my instrument cluster, which came on as soon as I started the engine this morning. At first, the car was very unsettled and to me it seemed to be misfiring. This went...

Hi I have just taken out the N/S/R lamp from my E55k to clean it out. When I removed it I found a ''cream coloured spongy case'' with something inside it, from this runs a grey pipe to a black plastic ''box'' can anyone tell me what all this stuff is? The main reason I ask is because the grey...

I've just bought a 1988 300SE, and can't make the little orange warning light that tells me an exterior bulb has failed go out. It is constantly lit when the lights are switched on, but all the lights appear to work. The handbook says it will also come on if bulbs of the incorrect type are...

Today, the engine diagnostic warning lamp lit up, and the engine is not running at full power, although it's not a cause for concern, the car can still safely travel at motorway speeds. Over the past week or so, I've been filling up with diesel from Sainsbury's (to cut costs), and wondering if...

Now my digits fall well short of what you might describe as a bunch of bananas but I can't believe how difficult it is to reach the side light bulb within a W203 Bi-xenon headlamp unit. I picked up two new bulbs tonight from the dealer - supposedly white rather than standard yellow glow - to...

The nearside front fog light of my 04 plate C class (facelift model - clear headlight and foglight lenses) failed recently. I though it would be a fairly easy job to remove the bottom part of the wheel arch liner and change the bulb. So I looked in my manual and duly bought the bulb...

Im sorry if this may have been covered in the past but can someone shed some light on this. Im trying to change the bulbs in the fog lamps and so far the closest ive got is going through the tow hook cover plate removed but even then its hard to get the bulb out :wallbash:.

CLK W209 2005 Ok , So I get 2 warning messages 1 - Left tail lamp out 2 - Left tail lamp back up bulb on I've had a jiggle about with the offending bulb and I am stumped as nothing happens ! Now i've never really paid much attention to the rear lights but I am assuming that the tail...

After some advice here folks. I have seen offered for sale pre face lift W211 rear light clusters with LED’s rather than bulbs (in the stop lamp sapce from the picture I've seen). I have a 54 reg pre face lift with plain bulb rear light clusters and wondered if the LED version on sale are...

Had the misfortune to break one of my fog lamps yesterday. Does any body know if the glass is available on its own as there appears to be no other damage. Many thanks
