heat and a/c
Are all those buttons supposed to be backlit. It would make sense to me if they are but a couple of mine in the 91 are not. The defrost/floor button, floor/face button, fan speed button and system on/off buttons are out.
Replaceable bulbs? |

All of the buttons should be illuminated. There are three super tiny bulbs on the back of the board. Not sure what size they are.

That's cool. Now I'll have to fix mine. :D

Re: heat and a/c
Super. I can fix it. Thank you.

Re: heat and a/c
I miss that dash. Missed it by one year in my '95, only to get the complications involved.

Re: heat and a/c
Where do you get the bulbs?

I'm not sure, but some searching indicates they are T4.2 Neo Wedge bulbs.
https://www.gmt400.com/threads/led-b...control.51932/ The T4.2 Neo Wedge appears to have a 10mm base. https://www.amazon.com/Jtech-Wedge-W..._1672419315575 Here's a bulb kit on eBay that says it's specifically for 88-94 Chevy trucks, and it lists the bulbs as 10mm. https://www.ebay.com/itm/174654851358 |
Re: heat and a/c
Well, I never imagined there would ever be so many instrument panel bulbs available. I did check around town and no one carries the original bulbs. Everything is LED in a variety of colors and crap.
I did see where GM stockers are said to be $15 a piece! Nevermind those. I don't do business with our local dealer. I did find some on ebay coming out of Tn in a few days. $18.95 for the 3. And age is taking it's toll on the dash plastic also. The hvac control panel right side mounting ear is broken off. I epoxied it together to brace it up on the right side. The control panel is not available through O'Reillys so I don't imagine it is elsewhere either. Unless one of you know where to get one? |
Re: heat and a/c
I received my 3 new stock type bulbs and installed them yesterday. They are correct and for $20. Nice to be able to see the buttons in the dark again. ;)

Re: heat and a/c
Bulbs sure have gone up. I always bought the old mini-bulbs by the box or 6 or more. Can't imagine paying $40 (or more) for a small box of light bulbs... sheesh
