Lights on radio dont work (Page 1/1)
Markeeise JAN 24, 09:50 PM
This is going to sound dumb but I was working on my radio and all the lights were working, but one area was dimmer and it happened when I bumped the radio. So I began tapping the radio, then I started picking at what looked like the bulb inside the radio with a metal pick. Then all of a sudden there was a tiny spark and none of the lights work, but the radio still works. Is there anyplace anyone could lead me? Thanks

These guys advertise bulbs, as well as repair services. One place to start.

There are 2 different fuses for the radio. Check the BATT fuse.

This style radio has 4 plug in bulbs similar to ashtray bulbs - #37

Thanks for all that responded, It was actually pretty simple just a blown fuse. Replaced it and everything worked fine!
Thanks for everyone's input!

Rats! I thought this would be a thread about the readout; My Monsoon radio/cd keeps reading in....Klingon....apparently....(I actually don't read Klingon)(No, really)

Exactly What Fuse Blown?
Batt Fuse then very likely has crap falling in it or other problems w/ the Lighter, See my Cave.

Dash lights fuse, See my Cave, Dash Dimmer
