Im trying to replace the bulbs in my heater control panel, ive got a haynes manual but its incorrect , it tell me the bulbs are held in place by clips on a strip at the rear , and simply unclip , this is incorrect on my 1999 1.0

It looks like i need to go in from the front , so I need to remove the control knobs ,

Ive got the centre rear wind screen heater knob off , but what about the outside 2?

Haynes says pull them off , but they are solid !!!!!

any help be appreciated

Cheers

sorted !!!!!

its not to bad of a job , i cansee why it easier onearlier models , as once the heater unit is out you replace them then ,

The new model has the bulbs attached to the centre switch , so you have to remove the vent clips , and it falls apart literally lol

then the bulbs can be easily replaced from the front

all lights up now , yippe , apart from the rear windscreen on bulb as this is part of the whole switch , so you would need a compelte new switch from VX probably alot more than 26p for a bulb lol
