Burnout lights on monsoon

[kool-aide]

Does any one if you can repair the lights for the monsoon buttons? The buttons I am referring to are the 1-2, 3-4, etc that are used to the radio preset and cd. I have the the 1-2 and the 5-6 burnt out on mine.


thanks

Yep, you can do LED's socketed with resistors built in, or you can get the actual replacement bulbs as well. I'd look for 14V bulbs.

check http://www.mouserelectronics.com
or http://www.digikey.com

Both are electronic parts warehouses that have many components and connectors OEM's use.
For example....The Steering wheel button lights, and switches that commonly blow on my 96 Grand Prix, and probably soon on my 02.... I bought the button contact switches and the lights at Mouser, and they work as good as brand new, and it cost me..oh... $8.00 with shipping...or abouts.
Don't be afraid to search out the resources!

I have photos and can write up a guide on how to repair these as well. I can forward to those whom want it.
Just need a bit more time to finish up this massive homework project first.
