Hello everyone/ question for 00 c280

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and want to say how amazing and helpful this site is. I have a 00 C280 sport but have encountered a problem witg my rear left light and my front left side as well. The turn signals and everything works with the exception of the running light for night do not turn on, and this is only for the left side, the right side everything works. I checked the fuses as well as the bulbs and they are all good. Any help or suggestions? Thanks again for all the valuable posts

Welcome to MBWorld. Is it just the light not turning on or do you also get codes thrown on your dash? Check the ground wire to make sure there's burning. Older model C classes (and actually even up to the recent 204 model) have had shoddy ground wires that have led to burnt housing.

Thumbs up Left side lights

Hi, yes it is only the lights, nothing shows up on the dash, but it only happens to the left side front and rear lights. The brake lights as well as turn signals all work, it is just the running lights in the left rear and the side front light that do not work. The bulbs look good as well as all the fuses, I will check the wires for the ground. Thanks for the help

Hi, I do not get a code on the dash, everything seems well except for the left side running lights. i am going to replace the light switch because it also seems to not work well and that might be the problem. Any idea on how difficult it is to change the light switch? Thanks again
