OBC gone dark

[ElNormo]

Apologies if this has been discussed ad nauseum... but my OBC unit (next to the radio) went dark the other day. With the headlights on, the backlights behind the buttons are fine. But the display is dark.

If I recall correctly, there are two bulbs, one of which was already gone. How hard is it to replace the lamps? Is there anything else I should be checking?

Thanks

There's a page on this site that show how to remove the OBC and replace the 3 bulbs

Nice, thanks... do you know if they are standard radioshack/autozone bulbs?

Take one with you....I have seen them once at checkers in pack, but your best bet is to go to the dealer.

Make sure to have a bulb with you, so they don't sell you the wrong ones>
