Expert Reply:
German vehicles like the Mercedes Sprinters have trailer wiring that just does not like to work with LED lighting like what the Demco part # DM36MV provides. But thankfully we have an adapter that was designed to solve this problem with the Curt 7-Way Adapter part # C57003. The error code you are seeing is for a "bulb out" or basically the vehicle thinks you have a blown taillight.
