Bulb Change On Center Panel (Heater Cotrols)

[macaroon]

Hi all,

I am newbie and this my first post, i am trying to remove the bulb(s) 2off which have blown , i have managed to remove all the surrounding panels except for white elec panel which the bulb are on.

I think its a twist and turn and pull to remove bulbs, but there is not much room at the back to get your hand and hold and turn to get these little beggars out.

Any suggestion/help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I am sure you have long since changed these but just incase or for anyone else struggeling.

you can not remove the panel itself, once you remove the dash that is as much as you need/can take off iam afraid.

the bulbs are simply push in, there is no twisting.

you will need needle nose pliers, nerves of steel and plenty of patience ;)

I would also suggest putting a floor mat jammed into the dash to catch the bulb in the inevetable event of it falling as you attempt to install it...

Has anyone discovered a better way yet? It looks like the holders will come off the the fan speed dial switch but i cannot remove the 2 x cables for the tamp and direction to see behind properly, I have run out of patience trying to get the bulb in past the reflector today and yesterday, there must be a simple way!
