Removing and installing additional

brake light bulb -M25- - saloon

Note

Failure of LEDs in additional brake lights:

The individual LEDs in the additional brake lights are com‐

prised in groups of four LEDs and are supplied with current in

groups.

The additional brake light is designed in such a way that the

legal requirements are still met in the event that one LED group

fails.

If a further LED group fails, these requirements are no longer

met according to the legislator.

Due to the failure of one LED group, the intact LEDs are placed

under increased strain; it must be anticipated that further LED

groups will soon fail.

If more than four individual LEDs in the additional brake light

have failed, the additional brake light must be renewed (repair

measure).

Caution

♦ Switch off ignition and all electrical consumers.
♦ Remove the ignition key.
