Hi everyone,

Me again, with yet another question...

I am going to replace the bulbs in my console's convenience control group.

Does anyone know the proper bulbs? I have seen 1895s mentioned, but then they conflict themselves and say others are more appropriate.

Also, does anyone know if the console needs to be pulled to change the bulbs or can you remove the lenses and do it that way?

Thanks!

The low fuel and seatbelt warning take a UL1445. The park brake warning and door agar warning take a UL256. UL256 bulbs are made to flash off and on to draw attention and reduce heat so the lens does not melt. They are not reproduced and must be found NOS. To change bulbs reach in console storage and push out light body, then remove the light body from the lens to change bulbs.

Thanks so much Marty. I saw you had posted on another forum and I couldn't figure out which ones were correct.

You are always such a great help. I really appreciate you, you are such a generous resource with your knowledge.
