My 95 E300 exterior bulb warning lamp is lit, but I have checked all the exterior bulbs and they all work fine, whats the problem. I did notice that it does not light up untill I put the car into reverse or touch the brake pedal, which leads me to think it may be something in the rear light pods. Any ideas?
I have removed all the bulbs and cleaned the contacts and replaced them but it still happens. It's almost time for the black tape over the light.
