Confusing warning lights

Nov 02, 2008 1 Replies

For a while my '92 300D would light up the "exterior light out" light upon braking and would go out when I released the brakes and not come on again immediately upon re-braking. The bulbs are correct and operational. I recently changed out my headlights with a pair of Sylvania SilverStars when one of them burned out. Idon't know if there's a connection but now I occasionally get a "generator" light when the brakes are on. It stopped doing it when I turned on the lights. The last weird thing was that I noticed that the light for the rear headrest switch was flickering, again, it stopped when I turned the lights on.



Any ideas?

Sound like bad ground contact... check where there are whole bunch of brown wires. Clean up the contact with sandpaper.

Check your brake lights.
