- W210 E280 estate 1999 facelift; 6th gen honda accord coupe 2000
Hello all,
Various things wrong with the 210 today. First of all got the ABS and ESP warnings while driving along. This is not unheard of as i do occasionally get them. It usually goes away when the car is restarted, but not today.
Then after restarting, I noticed these warnings had not cleared. Then, i couldn't get the gear lever out of PARK. (I did move it after sticking a pen in the hole )
Then I noticed that the brake lights don't work (but no warning on the dash about it. )
Do you agree that the brake light switch could be faulty?
I've got the old switch off, but now I can't see how to test it. There were two plugs, each with three wires. (ie 6 terminals altogether).
Is it possible to test this with a multimeter?
Any rapid responses this evening would be much appreciated.
PS, It's a facelifted 210 estate, 1999, E280.
