What is up with my tail lights?
One of my taillight bulbs burnt. I got a "Tail Lamp, Left" message on my dash so I replaced it. Now the message displayed said "Tail Lamp Left, Substitute Bulb On". I noticed that when I plug in the lamp module with the bulbs in it the lower 2 lights don't illuminate. When I remove the left bulb module the right side works perfectly. I went to MBZ and got a replacement bulb thinking the car might not like aftermarket but still the same thing.
I would appreciate any help or thoughts
