2006 E350 - cannot open the trunk by remote control

My vehicle is 2006 E350 4Matic. Last week I found a message on the the dash board about both the left & right license plate lamps are not on and the 3rd ntake lamp is not on. At the same time I found that the trunk cannot be open by the remote control.

I'm living in Vancouver, BC. Do anyone know how much does it cost me to fix this issue if I take it to Mercedes service centre. Or should I take it to any repair shop for service for less repair cost.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

You could have a short or a break in your wiring-see if this link does not describe your problem (it is not an uncommon one).
