Instrument Bulbs

Postby Simon_P » Wed 09.01.2019, 17:43

I need to change some instrument bulbs. I thought there was a list somewhere but I could only find the main replacement bulbs in the repairs section.

Reading up on replacements soon gets bogged down in LED replacements exceptions in colour and suitability for indicator tell-tale etc. Which I'm not particularly interested in unless there is a direct replacement identified (I don't want to fiddle around with light bulbs!)

Can someone direct me to a list of the bulbs or provide the missing information below - I've robbed this from another thread that got lost in LED's
- Warning lights (1.2W) size 509T - How many?
- Dash illumination (2W) size 509T - How many?
- heater illumination lights; size, number?
- supplementary instrument illumination; size, number?
- ignition warning light, marked W5W 3W and capless - Number?

If one doesn't exist I'll produce a list for the wiki.

Simon

There is already a list on WikiLEC under the heading Light bulbs

You can just add to it with any gleaned info or use the info there to solve your problem.

The parts book says:

Gauge Illumination (Green Socket) is 2W, There are 4 on my dash
Battery Tell-Tale (Brown Socket)is 3W There is 1 on my dash
Other Tell Tales (Black Socket) is 1.2W There are 13 on my dash

Can someone direct me to a list of the bulbs or provide the missing information below - I've robbed this from another thread that got lost in LED's
- Warning lights (1.2W) size 509T - How many? 13
- Dash illumination (2W) size 509T - How many? 4
- heater illumination lights; size, number? Can't help
- supplementary instrument illumination; size, number? Can't help - probably same as other gauge bulbs
- ignition warning light, marked W5W 3W and capless - Number? In the US, 501
