Hi everyone. So The error message was "rear light". I almost had a time to fix it in our shopping center garage yesterday. Outside there is -15cecius and windy and snowy. I was lack of tools and cables etc. so today I finnish this project. If someone ever has this problem, here is the work description
1. remove paddings from inside of trunkdoor with handle
2. remove or just open the side covers beside rear window.(there is 1 screw/cover that holds the trunkdoor padding) NOTE.Open pegs from where the hat rack is hanging
3.remove both lights from trunkdoor. remove the trunk lock arm from the lock side. (you have to have 10mm very long box wrench because there is one nut in tight place)
4. remove nuts from inside of the trunk door that holds the licenseplate lights frame (2pcs)
5. open 2 black screws from outside from licenceplate lights frame.
6. release trunk handle arm from handle side (metallic, be carefully not to brake the little plactic thing it is attached to)
7. remove electric wire from the licenseplatelights
8. from outside of trunk door pull gently the licenceplate lights frame downwards from both ends one side first.
9. pull the frame out
10. remove the metallic cover (two small screws)
11. In my case the blue wire cover was melted and there was only few strings ok.
12. have at least as thick cable that you are going to use to cover the old one.
13. THERE IS NO SPACE TO USE ANY PLUGS ETC. BELLIEVE I TESTED
14. cut the blue cable from both ends leaving at least 1 cm cable left.
15. attach new cable to the both ends (remember to put the new cable to the same way the original was, underneath of the soft seal.
16. Isolate the joint with electric tape
17. attach the license plate lights frame to the plug and place new fuse and start the car, see that lights are working and no fuses were burned.
18. put everything back in reverse order.
19. It is easy as long you have all the tools and cables and warm place.
