Default Heating control light out

How do you replace the small lights inside the panel?

Is it a PITA?

You'll have to remove the whole dash mate

Similar to when you replace the starter button light.

It's fiddly...Squeak has a dodgy lamp in there too

Remove the ignition barrel covers
Lowering the steering column
Pull the dash surround off, by getting your fingers in the gaps and pulling towards you
Disconnect the electrical connectors on both sides
Remove the dash surround
Take a look and find that lamp

Qube's website has instructions with pictures for all of the above...except checking for the blown lamp

Typical S2000 - I'm sure the Japs designed like a jig saw what interlocks so to get to a middle piece you have take all the rest out!

Have a look in Squeak's Qube Thread...I'm sure Fester posted up a US site that sells LEDs and are the correct fitment for the dash...go the whole hog, replace them all, and choose your own colour at the same time
