The_Dream_CLS

I have a 2006 CLS 500 - Trunk won't open when the trunk release handle, 3rd light out, driver's side license plate light is out all at the same time and the red trunk release button doesn't work to close the trunk.

Does anyone know what fuse controls these? I know it has to be a fuse issue b/c when I plugged in a new bulb to the location, it still won't work.

Ughhhhhh... Please help if this has happened to you as well.

Thanks in advance

Check harness @ trunk hinge (shown on W211)

i had the problem with my trunk. red light in trunk that closes and locks it was out and truck only opened from driver door or key fob.
took it to the dealer and they changed the wire harness, a 3.00 part but cost 285.00 in labor.
you're looking at close to $300.00

my issue with my trunk now is that it doesn't open fully or close when i push the button in the trunk or by the driver door. i can hear the motor working to close or open it but it doesn't i have to do it manually.
does anyone know what would be the cause of this?
