Is200 Pwr/snow Bulb Replacement

[petayV8]

Can i get this part at Toyota or do i have to go to Lexus? And if Lexus can someone link me the parts website one of the dealers hosts . Someone once linked it me but cant find it

Found this on the site...

That's right. Underneath the TRC/snow button the bulb is located. Turn it (maybe 1/2) turn with a screwdriver and the bulb will pop out. The replacement bulb you need is part no. 84999-10490, order it from your local Lexus dealer- I paid £3 for a replacement bulb- you might be able to get the same bulb online cheaper- I don't know?

Hope it helps...

I ave come to the conclusion its called a neo wedge however cant find a none LED variant. Are you sure thats the same bulb because ive got the auto with switch on selector

Well ian thats my problem! I actually took it out to take to a dealer and have lost it! Lol ill look tomoz when its light i think its in the shed somewhere and will take a pic.

If it's easier Pete i can photograph the one's i have and see if you recognise the culprit.....LOL.

thanks Ian. well after searching the house and shed i cant find the little bugger. so i did a bit of trial and error with the other bulbs and found out that the SNOW/PWR button on the selector uses the same bulb as the heated seat. Its the TRC button that uses a bigger type as you will see in the pics the hole is slightly bigger. so i need 1x of the bulbs in the pic for heated seat/PWR/SNOW and a slightly bigger version also for my TRC button as that one is also broken

bulb out of heated seat/PWR/SNOW

[IHgs300]

I have both Pete, Give me till tomorrow to test and you can have them. (literally have a bag full to choose from so will make sure they are working).

Pm me your address mate and they will be in post Thursday for you.

How do you separate the button housing to get the bulb out?

[jomo]

The bulbs are called grain of wheat bulbs,

Their cheap as chips on eBay, the bulb is held in by the legs that have been twisted around the fitting, just un-twist the old blown one and replace with a new one, 2 mins job.

Here's a pic to help removing bulb.

Fantastic, so half unscrew and pop out? Brilliant. Will Halfrauds sell the bulb?

[jomo]

I dont think they will, try a maplins or local model shop as they are used for train set ups lol.

[petayV8]

You can buy the bulbs on eBay. There called neo wedge T3 for pwr/snow. They are LED but found it slightly dimmer than the original bulb

[jomo]

Also the LED neo one's cost mega bucks!!!!

[petayV8]

Cheaper than from the dealer though. I tgink thwy quoted me £6 per bulb! but not as cheap as putting a diode original wedge housing granted
