Our 204 C Class 2010 70ks car had a modified Rear Light Cluster wiring replaced under Warranty, a known issue back in 2010. Problem has returned as the Mercedes fix was a band aid. They will still repair it, as the plastic of the connectors melts. The Ground wire can't handle the current draw. But I need to jump through hoops to get them to even acknowledge the issue. Much simpler to solder on a heavy extra ground wire from the Cluster to the Body Earth connection. A half Hour Job and a permanent fix.
