What bulbs go behind the dashboard?
« on: 04 February 2009, 01:20:03 »
Ok, my dashboard lights arnt working, nor are the central control lights eg: rear heated window heated seats etc. I've checked the fuses and they are all ok. Before i pull out the dash, does anyone know the specific bulb/s i would need to replace the blown one/s with? Makes it easier if i know beforehand :o)

Many thanks.

  I know the ones behind the dials are three capless 501s but not sure about the others :).

Thanks Pete, someone told me that the bulbs all run off each other so if one goes out, the rest fail to work. Im not sure about that but i couldnt see all bulbs blowing. I'll have to have a look. If only it were summer and not bloody freezing!

No they only go out one at a time. I'm not sure if the bulbs in the switches are changeable or are like the Senator/Carlton ones which if blown require a new switch :-/. I'm sure someone on here will put you right :).

Thanks Pete, I guess the dash just pulls out? I'll have a go in the morning.

Cheers
