Ok, last one for today:

1) Does anyone know if the warning lights in the instrument panel are bulbs or LEDs?

2) Are they user replaceable? (got the cowl and top cover of the dash off, saw the bit for the normal 3 bulbs, didn't investigate further since i didnt want to disconnect my battery to make sure SRS was off - or can i leave bat connected?)

3) Have any ever stopped working for you?


Thanks

i guess you mean the standard bulbs in the twist-out style holders? there are three on the back - those i have sorted.


What i don't know is what bulbs would for example illuminate the glow plug indicator / symbol, or the MIL light / symbol and all the rest of those - if they are LEDs or normal bulbs and if they are replaceable.

Can't find anything on this forum about any of those failing / being replaced, so curious since i suspect one of mine may not be working.

tiny little pushfit bulbs in a twist fit holder into the circuit board, back light ones may have colured condoms on them to give tinted light.

was that are you selling up aimed at me?

freelance: so all bulbs, the main back light ones with condoms and the ones that light up the ABS / MIL / Indicator / Glow Plug lights are easily changeable? (yes i can get the dash out easy enough )
