in my 2001 e 320 sport the rear tail light which is on the trunk lid was not lit,when i went to replace the bulb there was a plastic cover over the socket so i assumed the light was new.

iremoved the plastic cover and replaced the bulb and it still does not work.my friend just bought a 2002 clk and when i looked at his light it had the plastic cover over the socket too.

is this some mercedes flaw or what??any help please

I have the same problem on my 97 E420, the CHMSL, short for "Center High-Mount Stop Lamp" wasn't working, so I replaced the bulb, still not working, I also could not find any blown fuses anywhere. Is there a seperate brake pedal switch that triggers the high-mount stop lamp separately from the brake lights? My brake lights work fine...
