just found out ECO still lights up ocasionally. Cause of that am inclined to think it is some ground wire rather then bulbs.

I would suspect bulbs.......at the end of the day they have a pretty predictable life span so you expect them to go within a reasonable period of each other.

If you can solder you can fit new bulbs....

Just replace the switches mate, second hand ones arent expensive, probably have all you need here and more hassle than its worth to try changing the bulbs...

Problem is, if the bulbs are all getting to the age where they fail, second hand switches might not last much longer. I'd get the soldering iron out, personally.
