In Reply to: Brake Lights...Help me posted by Andrew on August 03, 2002 at 20:22:26:


I had the same problem with my 89 240. I had to replace the bulbs socket. It was about $15 at the dealer. You may want to take out the sockets (the ones that hold the brake light, in the wagon they are on the botton) and see how they look. If there is any metal pealing, corosion etc., even if the bulbs are good, the bulb out indicator light can come on. The problem can also exist if: the bulbs are not the correct ones. They need to be silver based, Or if the bulbs on both sides were not replaced at the same time.
