Make sure that you also check all the lights including the turn signals and dont forget the license plate bulbs (this was where I found my fault). The fault should remove itself automatically as soon as the bulb is replaced.

Speaking off bulbs...

I've got a '97 S500 and the left side instrument cluster bulb/s is out. Makes it hard to see the gas guage at night. Can anyone tell me what I'm up against trying to find/replace this bulb myself? Can I do this from under the dash or do I have to remove the cluster?

Found the problem this afternoon guys. I checked every bulb again and then saw that the rear side lights have not two but four, two pairs either side. One bulb was not working. So all sorted now thanks.
