Do the marker lights come on with the new bulbs?

So, per your STAR report, I would suspect the SAM. If only one was affected, I would be looking at wiring. I don't think they are on a common source. Mercedes likes individual control of all the electrical components. And I don't know if they are switched hot or ground. Eliminate the obvious like ensuring you have the correct bulb.
