The fuse should be nr 12. A list of all fuse numbers and gadgets should
be present in the cover of the fuse compartment. Fuse 12 feeds
instrument bulbs and safety relais for electric windows .
Suspects next to fuse are the brake light switch down behind the brake
pedal and the connector nr 8 to the complete rear lamps set. The only
other connection from brake light switch goes to the tempomat.
Information source is the wiring diagram of the european W 123 280E
1982. But the main electric features are the same for all types of 123.

That`s really helpful, thanks a lot. I`ll check it out.
One question though, if the fuse 12 goes to all instrument bulbs and
safety relais for electric windows, shouldn`t my other instrument
lights be out, like the headlights, electric windows, etc? Everything
else works fine...
It`s suspect that BOTH brake lights are out (meaning, its definitely
not a loose bulb, etc), and that is all. So could this mean its more
likely the brake light switch?

Last "Cars" Post on Wordpress: Title: Notícia: Fotos do Mercedes Classe E Conversível vazam na internet Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 11:46:12 +0000 Author: edertk
 As linhas são conhecidas. Tirando a capota.
Depois do sedan e do coupé, agora é o conversível quem dá as caras. As fotos, divulgadas pelo blog Carscoop, mostram que a capota será de lona, tal qual seu antecessor, o CLK. Até porque, se fosse rígida, deixaria o Classe E Coupé sem razão de existir.
 Capota de lona.
Os motores deverão ser os mesmos utilizados pela família e, no Brasil, incluem um 5.5 V8 de 388 cv, e um 3.5 V6 de 272 cv.
 Elegância e linhas vincadas.
Com o Classe E conversível, a linha dos “sem-capota” da Mercedes torna-se ainda mais completa, que inclui o roadster SLK, o clássico SL e o conhecido CLK.
