I too am lost on this one now. I understand the power comes from the rear Sam via a relay.
If you have not resolved your problem yet I am willing to work with you ??
Failing that, could anyone help please ?

I have several live codes all relating to the rear light module itself via the rear SAM --- B1615, B1516,B1620 B1623. in module E4.
I checked the drivers door side module but no reference to rear lights.
Older posts here refer to water ingress with flooding in the boot itself & damage to Rear SAM
but there have been M-B alterations to the 2004/5 models (Mine is 2004 model) & I believe the SAM is now buried under rear seat
I removed the rear light complete. There was contamination in the lower area. Everything cleaned up & bulb holders too.
Secondhand (Later) rear light modules are extremely hard to locate ! So will continue to search & diagnose.
Any thoughts or experience on this perhaps ?
