Dash lights

Post by KB88 »

I might be wrong here but when i bought my Rocco i swear the heater bar and numbers around the fan controls etc lit up. :dunno:

The buld that sits above the ash tray stopped working and i thought that would be it. I've replaced it but it doesn't seem to illuminate the heater bar etc.
Ive taken the cover off and all i see is an electrical connection to the back of the heater bar (is this actually a light?)
So in short is it meant to light up and how?

Secondly, the one in the ash tray had small soldered bits there, the replacement doesn't sit in there that well, do i have to solder it again?

Cheers
