S 550 Door Handle Lights?

Does the S-class have illuminated LED door handles like other MB's?

Can't find any reference in operators manual...

If so, mine are burned out...

Picture is a C300:

My 2015 model has them, only two are working though , they seem to be a common problem where they stop working, they are very expensive to replace though as the door panels need to be stripped out to get to them.

Mercedes email response...

Case closed...all 4 door handle LED lights working

Not sure what I did other than insert key fob into ignition and twirl light switch from initial setting of automatic back and forth, then back to automatic in the dark. Weird...
(Noticed I had to re-boot (on-off-on) a fair number vehicle settings like auto folding side-mirrors after small eco battery replacement)

Add'l lesson learned: MBUSA Customer Support at the following address support@mbusa.com is a good source for questions not addressed in ops manual or this forum.

Cheers,
