Does SAM Control Reverse Lights?
Hi,
My reverse lights are not working, but the bulbs are working. I am wondering if the lights could be controlled by the SAM, because I couldn't find a listing on the fuse chart for the reverse lights (which is where I first looked). I have a 1999 S430.
Thanks
Ray

Yes, since the mid 90s all system on an MB are controlled via the CAN bus and SAMs. Lights not working is an indicator of a bad SAM unit.
