Rear Left Lamp / Brake Light

[giggss]

this message appears while I was waiting to clear customs back to Singapore from Malaysia yesterday. I pressed "OK" to clear away the message.

 

After reaching Singapore, parked and checked.. all brake lights and taillights are lighted up.. including the center brake light..

 

anyone encounter before? Anything wrong?

The last time this happened to me , the wires at the back were fried. Do give it a check. The fired wire will have loose connection so the warning could come on and off.

Hi

I am facing this problem now. Rear right lamp/brake light including the signal light message appeared this morning when I was signaling right.

Went down to Autobac to check and it was verified that a wire was seen burnt and the electronic board (holding all the bulbs) has a burnt mark as well.  

Was quoted 200+ to change the whole board & wire!!!!!

The mechanic inform that this is a very common issue for C180 and it is always on the rear right side.

When I check, all brake light and signal lights are working properly.

Anybody has any lobang for a cheaper solution to this??

 

Thanks

Try your luck at CnC. My neighbor 4 years old C200 front light holder and cables burnt too.

He complained to CnC and got the whole front light replaced FOC.

Go to Goldenlink to buy the light housing....very cheap (can't remember the cost) & can easily DIY. I believe the wire connector pins need to change too....(also very cheap).

Thanks Guys I went to Chip Soon Auto and got it fixed easily at $80+ for the electronic board and a Connector.
