2014 E63s: right rear taillight

Post by kevm14 »

The running light LED portion seems to have died and I guess this is common. It's some solder issue but the light is not serviceable so it turns into a science project to fix.

Pretty straight forward. I had to pull the trunk side panels to access the upper shock mount nuts anyway so this was extra efficient. The new light has a July 2022 date code and a revised P/N which is encouraging. Works again.

I might be missing a trunk panel between the top part and the spare but not positive.

I also replaced the trunk hinge covers when I put the trunk stuff all back together. That was a 1 minute fix so not making a thread for it.
