Cornering Lamp Replacement

2012 S350, VIN WDDNG8DB5CA426072. The right cornering light flickers and then turns off (and I get a message in the dashboard saying that it failed). Couldn't find anywhere instructions on how to replace it and also what is the replacement part #. Anyone had to go through this?
Thanks.

Facelift access to LED is deleted (MB does not offer separately), check all connectors/pins to headlight.

Do you happen to have the pinout diagram? I checked the connectors and none of them is corroded or has anything that makes me think it doesn't hold a contact. Also used contact cleaner and dielectric grease without any luck.

Is it LED on pre-facelift cars?

Ah yes the owner's manual. Wow it's an H7.

This isn't my thread but....looking at the manual there reminded me: is there a way to use the fog lamps (on US models) without having to take the headlights out of auto? This kills me on my E55 and S550 and seems to be the Mercedes way....also seems incredibly dumb...
