What could cause the little light bulb not to work

Howdy,

There is a tiny lightbulb behind the light switch knob. I pulled off the knob, and bought a new light bulb. A tiny little sucker. Still, it does not work when I turn on the lights. Every single instrument light bulb works in my DD, except this one.

Any ideas ?

W123 Chassis Application, and in particular, body is a 240D 1983 flavor.

Thanks in Advance

That light is for euro rear fog lights, which presumably your car does not have. The light would come on when you pull out the combo switch 2 clicks.

If you search for it here, there is a writeup to add functionality of that switch-it's not terribly hard IIRC. You cannibalize a pin from another switch and wire it to whatever light setting you want.
