    New GLS brake lights

    I just got rear ended in my brand new 2020 GLS and the person said they never saw my brake lights so I thought I’d test them when I got home. I have to say I was far from impressed by the brightness of the brake lights. I assumed the massive lights on the tailgate would light up when braking...

    Vito - high level center brake light

    The high level center brake light in my Vito 109 (2006/07)has stopped working. I've removed it, but it looks like it isn't designed to open to replace the lamps - I'm guessing they're LEDs. My worry is that LEDs basically last longer than the vehicle can be expected to last; so what are the...

    No brake lights/cruise control

    Hi, hope someone has a fix for this issue with my 2001 SLK320. Problem started with BAS/ASP warning light coming on when braking, it goes out when I switch off and start again. I then noticed Cruise wasn't working (it's OK if I start and run without touching brake pedal) I was then 'advised' by...

    CLK boot Brake Light Lens

    I had not had the best morning so far! My Shoe lace snapped when tying my shoes this morning and then I closed the boot of my 2004 240 CLK and the boot / brake light lens fell off. It had been cracked for a long time, but had sat there happily. Given the wet weather, I need to replace asap...

    We have a 2002 Mercedes sprinter in my work with a couple of mystery electrical problem. The first one is that when the hazard warning lights are left on for no more the 5 minutes, the battery appears to drain. The second, which has just occurred recently is that the break lights do not light...
