Heater Panel Illumination
Moderator: martauto
Couldn't find a post that specifically mentions this as I suspect it is quite billy basic. The heater panel on my car appears to have a bulb out as the speed dial and sliding switchs illuminate but the temperature one doesn't. Does the panel just lever out (if so how?) and is it a straight twist and fit bulb from a main dealer or is there more to it?

If you have a RH drive car and an analogue clock, pull the surround off the clock, unclip the clock and pull it out forwards.
The bulb that has failed is right below the clock aperture.
The bulb is a 1.2W capless type.

Before you take it apart, push it in with a little force and rotate the heater dial - the bulb in mine came loose and a little bit of a fiddle had it back in place without the need to take out the clock or anything like that.
