Hi All

Just picked up my lovely new 300 TE (Photos and details to follow.) On the way home, I noticed that the bulb failure light came on permanently as soon as I turned the lights on. On inspection, both tail lights are not working, although all other rear lights are. It was too dark to investigate, so I wondered if anyone knows of any possible reasons for this other than the usual bulbs or fuses? I looked at the fuse diagram and they both seem to be on different circuits.

Also, the washer fluid level lamp is on even though the reservoir is full. When I looked in the glovebox, I found a brand new level sensor still in the MB bag ! Question-how do I remove the sensor from the bottle? Is it just a push fit?

Many thanks for your help.

Doh !! :Oops: Ignore Mr stupid!!
Just had a look at the car. Both rear light bulbs had blown and the washer reservoir was nearly empty!
Just for once, it really WAS easy things to sort out!
:D
