406 D8 Heater Control Panel Bulbs

Post by daddypugwash »

Hi,

Not posted for a while as other business has kept me away from a few jobs on the 406. However, I recently had to change the bulbs for the heater control as most had failed. I managed to get the control unit out but could only change the bulbs for the top row of controls. Sadly, the bottom row remains in the dark (which is most unhelpful on these cold evenings). It appears you have to take the heater control unit apart to get at these bulbs but I couldn't figure out how to disasemble it. Anybody managed it?

Thanks

I'm sure you don't need to dismantle the unit.
When I bought mine all the bulbs were dead in the climate control module and I had no probs changing them... :?
