[s-cars] outside temp illumination

[Bill Clancy]

If anyone has noticed that their outside temp indicator no longer lights up orange, I know how to fix it.    I managed to find the miniature lamp at an electronics supply site.    You have to take it apart and de-solder the old lamp and solder in the new one.    

This is the lamp that works.

It's a 12 volt, .06 Amp (.72 watt) miniature lamp, measures 3mm x 5mm.   costs .49 cents plus 1.98 shipping.   The Audi dealer want $195.00 to replace the entire module.   

...my small contribution to the group.
