I have a 2001 GS430 with one of the lights that illuminate the radio dial out. The display is fine. Where do I get replacement bulbs and do I have to solder them in? Thanks, I searched previously but no responses specifically addressed the 2001 radio. (not Nakamichi)

 

do u have the nav or non nav unit?

 

If it the non nav pioneer one you have to solder them in no biggie

 

It is the Non-Nav Pioneer unit. Do you know a part number? and where to buy?

 

I have the 99 GS300 with the radio numbers and letters showing up in pieces (display NOT fine) and also the light behind it has went out...the air conditioner display above it is perfect and the numbers on bottom 1 thru 6 are also fine...if i change just the bulb behind it, that might solve the light but what about showing partial numbers??? Does the whole part have to be replaced?

 

no sorry off hand i dont know the part number im going try and fine out for you cause i use another type for my ham radio display that smd
its done time for a new one or use

 

call pioneer and tell them the kind of vehicle you have.Tell them is the two main backlight display bulb. I had to order one myself and solder it in. It does come with the green rubber condom.

 

I see the new radios on eBay for around 200. I heard the parts were about 150. I'm not sure I could do the repairs. Has anyone been able to fix the partial display of the numbers/letters on the radio? How do I post a pic of it?
