Number plate light
 

The rear number plate light in my W124 300D keeps burning out.
This actually happend every time my wife opens and closes the boot lid.

I am sick of this warning light comming on in the dash.
do I keep chnging the globs or do I change the wife?

I think you can get a LED replacement for the globe. Some how I dont think the blown globe has anything to do with your wife.

There are plenty over in the Open Discussion Forum who could give you advice about your wife!! :D

Where in Oz are you?

I have taken the whole thing out and filed the terminals, made sure they are a little tight where the globe sits.... etc..

I am in Sydney

The only thing I can think of is a bad earth on the boot light &/or the tail lights that is playing games with the globe. A slightly higher wattage globe may also help.
I am about 1000km south west of you.
