Default Problem with climate control. Please help.

One of the bulbs that light up climate control LCD is burnt, so like 2/3 of display only lights up. I went to radio shack this morning and got 12v 50mA bulb and soldered in place of the old one. The new one barely lights up. Oem ones are much brighter. I guess those bulbs are like 6v or something. Do you guys know the exact specs of the bulbs? Should I try 6v tomorrow? Note that I'm talking about the bulbs that light up the LCD and not climate buttons.

Check out the wiring diagram, are those bulbs 5v?
