In this video I show a common issue with many Mercedes-Benz models including C240, C320 and other model Mercedes-Benz vehicles around the 2000-2005 year models that have malfunctioning front turn signals. I discuss replacement parts souring tips as well as the service bulletin regarding this issue and its repair. The service bulletin referenced is MB# P-B-82.10/195F

Nice video Tim! I always smile when I see someone else trying to fit a light or component back in a tight space especially when they come out easy and you swear the hole shrunk.

Nicely done! We live in the Southeast, if you're interested I could just about spend enough on your airfare as opposed to taking it to the dealer! When the sunny south beckons, just hollerl The service bulletin is really worth having checked out. Also like the info on World Pack. Good Post!

Thanks buddy. I need to watch for those TSB's all the time I guess. Just being a lone tech like us you dont have a wealth of information around you from other techs who might know of an obscure TSB fix and find out after posting a video that there was a cheaper way. not that that has ever happened to me...hehehe

Yep. sometimes I feel like a real tightwad when we are out shopping and using my scanner comparing prices but we save so much money by just spending a little extra time doing research. For instance Toys R Us. They have a price matching policy. We saved almost $20 on just a $35 purchase the other day. The guy behind us had two shopping carts full of stuff I know I could have saved him $300 by taking 15 mins or so to check online. Granted we are in Alaska and things just cost more here with all the shipping but might as well take advantage of a policy if they have one. Saving customers money is also a good feeling. I would rather take the money i saved and invest in solar lighting for the outhouse myself! God bless you friend!!

On a B200 2011, I replace the flasher bulb and it works now. But I can get rid of the message in the dash board. And it's still flashes fast inside the car. But outside is ok. Anyway trick to get rid of the dash message?

Hello, I have a c230 w203 and the left front headlight turn signal is not working. No message on the screen and everything but that bulb works perfect in the car. So I unpluged the headlight connector and checked for continuity like: from headlight socket N:1 to bottom connector on socket bulb and perfect continuity. From car body to top copper headlight socket copper and ground perfect. Light bulb is perfect. The problem is coming from the harness wire N:1. Where is this wire coming from and somebody seen this problem? May be a relay for that bulb? Car shows on screen when a bulb is bad, but not that one. I can even remove that bulb and turn signal shows no errors o high speed blinking. Help will be appreciated thanks

Thanks dude. I have the same problem on the same side. It was intermittent which indicated a loose connection but when removing the bulb, the connection on the globe holder looks brand new. I can't really see the inside of the headlight contacts while the headlight is installed so will do some research into that.

Did you put electrical grease on the new contacts to protect them? Note I didn't say dielectric grease, that's the wrong product.

Bits bent tin, i thought merc would have known better :-(. I had to repair a frends peugeot estate car with a similar "bits of tin" contacts for the indicators, i drilled two small holes in the back of the top hat bulb holder and soldered two wires to the inner tin bits, fixed the problem :-D A very shitty design indeed :-(
