Bulb warning light on....

Hi,

I have been driving around for the past year or so with the bulb warning light on all the time. I knew about the tail light assembly problem that can caused the light to come on, and that why I have been ignoring it for the past year.

I just took my car in for the tail light assembly replaced (Mercedes recall), and yet the warning light still on. I have check the following lights for burned bulb, but can't find any.

Head light, brake light, parking light, fog light, signal light, center brake light, license plate light.

Any suggestion or comment will be much appreciated...

I'm surprised that the MB dealer replaced your tail light assemblies and gave the car back to you with the warning light on.
