Hi guys, as above two questions, easiest one is what does the grid on the back side window(s) that says alarm in middle do? :-/ there is two little sensors at either end too.
Next 1, i have got some bulbs that have gone on my climate control panel. :( Anyone know the vaux code for these and how i remove the trim panel?
Oh and a pic of the reverse of one so can see just how many bulbs have blown would be a bonus..... ::)
Thanks in advance. Jon :y :y :y

The panels are glass break sensors ...... surprisingly! ::) :y :y

thats what i thought but seem pointless if there are interior sensors anyway?

To remove climate panel...remove stereo...remove ashtray (unclip the ash tray itself giving access to the 3 screws holding it in place) then carefully reach into the stereo hole and up behind the wiring after a bit of searching you will find a thick solid metal bar...it pulls downwards to release the centre console bit...you can then access back of the climate controle :)

Hi it shows how to replace the climate bulbs here.
-
brill thanks!

If only I had received such detailed directions like that as a young and innocent 16 year old!!
-
Just looked at the how too and there are two types of bulbs on there. How would I know which ones I need? :-/
And it says there are only 5 bulbs???
Looks like about 4 of mine have gone but there are still a few working??? :-/ :-/ :-?
-
While it's in bits replace the lot !!!
regards
richard a
p.s. take the old bulbs with you to the vx dealer

Thanks Richard A. :y How much are these bulbs at the stealers? Can these be got off ebay? Does anyone know what they are called.
I think i recall hearing capped and capless about bulbs at one point :-/ :-[
-
Anyone know?
:-/ :y

Ultrasonics wont work if you have the load net or a dog guard fitted so break glass detectors help protect the load area.

Glass break sensors.
5 bulbs in climate panel - 3 for backlights, 2 for illumination of buttons via lightguides. Auto indicator is LED, and reliable. Change all 5 together, about £1 each from stealer iirc. Slightly cheaper from Farnells, but min £30 order. Forget the eGay.

I need to do the bulbs in my CC, is it a bulb for the temp. readouts? Drivers side is dark on mine.
