drill or hand drill

in this video 

i show you guys how to fix the most common fault with the w204s
the tail light connector harness issue relating to the brown ground wire

this common fault causes a inconsistent connection between the harness and the tail light connector

thereby dimming your tail lights and throwing error messages
also due to the wire being too thin of a gauge for the amount of current being drawn to the tail light assembly it  can melt the connector harness and in some cases cause a fire.....very dangerous in my opinion

so a fix is necessary to ensure safety 

i have been told that mercedes has announced a recall for this fix but with the hassle of having to book and lose your car for a certain amount of time 

here i show you how to diy and fix this issue yourself
this is a permanent fix as well

i show 2 ways in which you can use to fix this common fault with the w204s
the choice is yours
they are both solid fixes
