Is it the engine compartment WH or the one for the whole car?
I was hoping this problem was more common in the later MBs - like mid 90s -
now you indicate it the early 90s like my '91 300D!
Darn...

No clue for your application, but I finally figured out what the lamp out
indicator was doing in the E300D. Since there is afterglow happening
and there are no bulbs that have died, there is a short in the wiring
that makes the bulb out indicator light up until the post glow is done.
I am not looking forward to replacing the biodegradable wiring harness

Hi Gang --
I've been driving the W-124 to try and understand when and why the
pre-glow light is coming on once in a while. I drove about 1 mi. when
it came on - I needed to turn so I hit the turn-signals and brakes and
the light blinked and went out momentarily then came on again. It
repeated this behavior - the light came on, I'd hit the brake a couple
of times and the pre-glow light would go out, then come back on after a
couple of seconds and after 20-30 seconds it went out and stayed out for
a few minutes. It did this 2 or 3 times.
While the ignition switch is not new, I am leaning toward the GP Relay
being bad - I have been reading the procedure and hopefully will test it
soon. But I think I will replace the ign switch anyway.
I need help finding the WSM procedure dealing with the ign. switch - I
have looked at all of the Gr 54 pdf's without seeing any dealing with
R&R or testing the ignition switch.
Anyone know where it might be?
Thanks!
