Re: Those D*mn Little Bulbs!!!
Chris,
if you took out the radio &removed the front panel, you are 80% there! The
LCD display is held in place with Phillips screws, as I remember; take them
out, move the LCD display out of the way, and you should see the bulb. I
HAVE replaced this also, at one time. Extra wire on bulb leads is minimal,
so need to do some careful splicing/soldering. Also, don't pinch the leads
as you reinstall the nosepiece.

Good question! My radio display has the same problem. I pulled the
radio and took off the top panel. No light to be seen. The dealer said
it was not fixable and recmended a rebuilt radio (he aslo said the it was
junk and to go aftermarket). But until then, a fix will need to be
made. Any "bulb wizdom" welcome.
