SOURCE: Tail lights wont work

sounds like ground problem- remove tail lights and look for wires going to body -remove screww clean grounding area and replace- both sides. You did not say whether the lights work when car is off? With car off and brake pedal pushed is there any brake lights ? If not procede with above.

SOURCE: 2001 dodge neon tail lights inop

looking at your schematics and , you say tail lights don't work , you didn't mention if front parking lights and license plate lights are working , they all come from the same source , a black /yellow wire , a good clue if front work and rear don't , please advise .if fronts work then you have a open circuit somewhere between junction S118 (near breakout for left headlamp) and rear sockets.

SOURCE: dashboard lights and rear exterior running lights

the fuse is labled 'brake'

I would replace the fuse... and then have someone stand to the rear of the vehicle and watch the lights come on as I applied the brake... if the fuse blows again... note which tail light did NOT come on durring this test and replace the bulb.. it is grounding to itself and causing the short.

2008 Mercedes-Benz Vito van. I have no blinkers indicators lights lights or fuel gauge. I have checked all fuses could it be a relay and which one would it be in the box. Thank you.

Question edited for a lot more clarity, and add maker.
Question moved to maker category.

These are all function of the Body Control Module. You need an auto electrician with a pro grade scan tool computer and access to factory technical bulletins.

The tail light, brake light and the back blinker on right hand side is not working on my ml320cd 2008 also the brake light on the left side not working too

So your taillights should have 2 bulbs in them. 1 that turns on when you turn your lights on and stays on until you turn them off. That same bulb should have a 2nd circuit that lights up when you press on your brakes. The 2nd bulb appears when your reverse gear is engaged. So if you have no lights on right you have to replace both bulbs and if you have no brake light on the left you just have to replace your rear brake light bulb.

Where to locate fuse for brake/tail light on a 2007 mercedes benz gl450

Unfortunately, you vehicle has 3 different fuse panels. If you look under your rear cargo deck (where the tool kit is), you will hopefully find a "fuse map". I believe the tail lamp fuse should be in the rear fuse panel.
I'm not sure where you live, but in Canada there is also a campaign to replace the tail/brake lamp sockets.

Why dont my lights work in my 2000 mecedes s 500

You most likely have another fuse box either in the glove box or under the dasy. It sounds like a blown fuse.

Right rear tail light

My 99 SLK230 had the same issue. Looked into it and found that there was actually a recall on the tail light assembly because of this exact problem. Granted it was the driver side tail light but you may have the same issue. Hope it helps!

S 500 02 mercedes

check and make sure the brake light are working, the brake light circuit must be activated to release the safety park interlock system, this system uses a solenoid, if the brake lights do work then the solenoid may be bad or the pin is stuck in the shifter.

Brake Light Fuse & Gas Gauge

Start by replacing your brake light bulbs. If it still blows the fuse, them your brake pedal switch. If it still happens then you have a shot circuit in your wiring between your fuse panel and your brake lights.
