Hey Lads
In the U12 Pintara's on the dash where the digital clock is when i turn my lights on it doesn't high light green, the clock itself still works just the background doesn't highlight in green when you turn ya car lights on.. would it be a blown bulb or fuse ? is this easy to fix or have you gotta pull the dash out?
Cheers
Matthew

unfortunately, sounds like a broken bulb, and yes... it's a big job to fix it.
-
its 4 screws, then your done mate :)

~stands corrected~
-
OK so here's a question... anyone figured how to change the bulb to say a blue LED? I hate the green.

you can use el sheet behind it. That's what I did.
-
I knew you did that, i almost wrote "without usint EL" figured led's would be easier for the normal kid.

Would be fairly straight forward. Take out the green piece of plastic between the LCD and globe and either use led instead of globe. Or use a * insert colour here * coloured plastic, lighting gel etc to go between the globe and LCD.

It's a bit more than a 4-screw job.
You need to remove the bottom dash fascia panel (with all the switches and cigarette lighter in it), and the black 'gauge surround bit', then unscrew the clock off the back of that.

I get 15 screws counting in my head? :P
-
I recently pulled my dash out to get to the cluster. It's a lot of bloody screws, I lost count, and the bit you remove to get access to the clock is one of the last pieces to remove...
-
its the light it self not the fuse i had to fix my one in the TI
-
u dont need el paper or whatever to make it blue... i just changed the light to a blue LED and mines blue...
