Hello all

I appear to be having the above message on the control. However, I have checked all the lamps and bulbs which appear to be in working order.

How do I get rid of this message please?

Many thanks in anticipation.

Usually a bad contact somewhere. Start with the tail lights, take the bulbs out one by one and clean them and their holders. What car is it?

Also worth checking things like double tail lights.

Thanks chaps.

I don't think I checked the number plate lamp yet nor have I cleaned the contacts. Think I will give that a go.

It is a CLK320, W208.

Many thanks again :)

Double check all the earth / non positives as well. S210 estate had to keep cleaning the bulb holder till I eventually just fitted a new one.
