Can someone help, I have 6 taillight malfunctions in my E500
Just like the title says, We have an e500 Wagon that just threw 6 malfunction codes!! I dont know what the hells wrong with this.. I checked all the fuses and im not seeing any burnt out, so im guessing its a relay or something? 
Does anyone have any insight on this?

Not sure what year your car is, but if it does happen to be out of warranty by 86 miles they might still take care of it for you.

Im not an expert but this doesnt seem like a bulb problem and since the errors are occuring in both lights one of them simply didnt come unplugged.

Yes, we have the extended warranty and they covered it.. Thank god! They said it would have been expensive, as it was the rear control unit that they replaced. She did mention that it probably could have been replaced even after expired warranty, since it seems to be a common problem.
