Lights in Stock Delco Radio

[paulfischer]

Can one replace the bulbs in the radio??? Mine are burned out for the preset numbers. Will dealer have these bulbs??????

Thanks!

I'm sure you can, but I haven't had to. Check Radio Shack before you go to the dealer. They sometimes have oddball bulbs like that.

I believe they're soldered to the PCB, but I'm not 100% positive. They could be like the cluster lights (screw-in holders with clip-in bulbs), but I never cracked mine open to find out.

Good question. Mine is doing the same thing. What about the knob? I lost one and have been unbable to locate replacements. I have never lost knobs on a radio, but somehow one fell off and must have been vacuumed.

What about the instrument panel. Does it have bulbs?

Thanks!

not sure about the knobs, and yes you can replace the bulbs in the delco, however they ARE soldered to the pcb board, there are 10 of them alltogether. You can get them at the dealer, but radio shack has ones that dont quite look the same, but work just as good, if not better, and last for 10,000 hours, compared to the dealers, which lasts only 2,000. How do I know all this you ask? Well, take a look at one of my recent auctions, it tells all. Everyone have a great day.

Thanks for the reply. I will have to pull that puppy out soon. I guess the daughter wil be driving this in the not too near future.

I've got a stock cassette Delco radio, and my knob came off (that's not supposed to be suggestive XP). I just crazy glued that sumbitch back on and haven't been able to pull it off no matter what. If you just want a radio I can toss mine over to you, but if its the CD I can't help much.

Hey thanks!

The radio and cd wok fine. No problems in that are at all. Just a knob and a couple of lights.

Thanks again!
