how to turn foglights on?

[Zuffenhausen]

can't figure out how to turn these bad boys on. Also is the headlight switch the same as any other w124?

pretty standard on most mercs, switch headlamp on, then pull. 1st notch front fogs, 2nd notch front and rear fogs - this being euro standards. You can also have sidelights on and front fogs but not rear.

Actually quite clear if you look at 3.
By the way- 1 and 2 are parking lights

is the switch for a 500e the same as any 124? and how does one replace the bulb in the middle mine does not light up?

1. Yes, all 124 light switches are simular- 124 had serial foglights.
2. Pliers and towel- than puuuullllll
Lamp itself is also not easy to replace, you might need "a third hand" to help.
Remember- it lights up ONLY if you switch back fog light!
