Post by Raverrst »

Hi guys, as in title, anyone know the correct bulb size and voltage for the four backlights of the LCD display, had a look through the service manual, found part number for the bulbs but no specs..

Update to the post for anyone else in the future requiring this info, as couldn’t find anything about this.. I found replacement wire ended bulbs of 6volt, 40mA, 3mm diameter, 6mm length to work and as I only had one blown out of the four the replacement seems to give equal light output to the originals. Also the original bulb size was 3mm diameter, 5mm length but the 6mm fitted fine..
