Trunk light out

I have a 2002 C240, the trunk/cargo light has gone out and I am getting a message on my dash to visit the shop. The trunk open button that is on the drivers door, the indicating light does not light when the trunk is open. Is there a sensor, fuse or switch that has gone bad and where might it be located?

Any chance you could state what the message says?

My guess is bad sensor, wherever that may be.

So the LED strip is out? Since those can't be changed individually that's why the car tells you to visit workshop. If all have gone out at 1 time it's most likely a connection issue or a fault on the board.

The bulb is fine, I have no power to the light, tested it with a Volt Meter. The message I am getting is "Lamp Sensor Visit Workshop". I have no wiring schematic to follow to find out where the problem lies. Does anyone have a schematic? Appreciate all the help I am receiving and helping me through this problem. Thank you.
