Help ...... "Light Defective" Hell......
Ok I new here so excuse my stupidity!
1999 E320 4 door petrol .....
it was sent by a quack electrician who re arranged the rear lights beacuse he couldnt get one side to work..... (he connected the left side to the right side ....?).
Now I went to the MB dealer in my area who brought everything back to normal...... but......they say a sensor is damaged ... the one that give you the "light Defective" message on the dashboard....
What is it ?, where is it ? and can I get it and replace it without having to pay them another arm and leg?
I LuV My TE....

Nope.. the sensors to determine a faulty bulb are integrated in the light switch fuse box, (is a black block with 10 +/- fuses & the light switch integrated) you can chech the fuses via opening driver door & removing the cover on the side dash. this fusebox have integrated the blown bulb sensors, we need to replace some of that in our workshop. i recommend you buy some via ebay:
