Problems with lights in 2003 CLK 320

Hi guys, i just bought my CLK320 w209 on wednesday and i noticed a couple problems. On my right light, both the low beam and the turnsignal malfunction warning are on in the dash.

When it says "low beam" does it just mean that the actual light is low/fading out or does it just mean the low beam of the headlights?

also on the turn signal i noticed that the metal connecter piece in the bulb holder is burnt, but then i switched the the left and right blinker assemblys, it still didnt work in either. what can this be.

Also for my headlight beam, sometimes it turns on first try and sometimes i have to turn them off and back on for it to work.

please help me out guys, i want to take care of it before going to the dealer first. thanks

your low beam bulb and turn signal or fuses are blown.
question - when you bought your car did it have these problems?

Blinker?

Hey,

My left headlight blinker is also out. I swapped the bulb but it is still not working. It does seem like a fuse, but I would think that one blinker wouldn't be on 1 fuse. The one in the mirror works fine, the right one works fine....fresh bulb.. I'm outta ideas. lol

I was actually about to post a similar thread about this very issue when I saw others have this problem as well. I got in my car and all of a sudden my front right blinker is out. I went and bought a new one and it's not the problem. Anyone know where the next place I should look is? Would be much appreciated... I really don't want to head to the dealer.
