Product Information

Mercedes-Benz Exterior Lighting diagram for R350

A turn signal light socket is the electrical connector that holds and powers the turn signal bulb within the vehicle’s lighting assembly. It ensures a secure fit for the bulb and provides the necessary electrical contact to activate the signal when engaged. A properly functioning socket is essential for reliable turn signal operation, which is critical for vehicle safety and communication with other drivers.

• Intermittent or non-functioning turn signal, often caused by poor electrical contact.
• Burnt or melted socket housing, due to overheating or electrical resistance.
• Corrosion or moisture buildup, leading to dim or flickering bulb operation.

About Genuine Mercedes

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Mercedes-Benz are not necessarily manufactured by Mercedes-Benz. No cause for concern, as Mercedes-Benz designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Mercedes-Benz for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Mercedes-Benz logo.
