Bulbs

Maybe I should have posted this on my Heated seat post but I thought I'd get a better response doing it this way.

I put my side lights on today and one of the heated seat switches wont illuminate up, but when you push them in the indication light comes on to let you know the heaters are on,can you replace the bulbs in the switch or is a new switch needed.

I am not 100% certain of the type of switch you have , but you should be able to replace the bulb separately.

you need to pop out the switch and have a look at the back.

Took it all out and yes you can replace the bulbs,they are in a small holder twist and remove.

Thanks for the help

I've been to Lexus and have seen the light! and the price! That's why they always say take a seat and would you like a drink!

If you have switch illuminator bulbs blown, dont go to Lexus. Go to Maplin and buy the small 12v clear bulbs they have. About £1.20 for a bag of 10 ! Take the bulb holder out of the switch and just fit the new bulb into it. I've changed about 6 on my dash , Lexus Chester wanted £ 8 for the bulb and holder .... Paul

Did think of that but the bulb is green not clear.

Model railway bulbs... come in red, green, clear etc..

they sell them on eBay.. I got some for the indicator light on my heated seat switch..

also, coloured bulbs are sometimes clear, with a green rubber cap.. if so, just swap the cap to a new bulb.
