has anyone dealt with them before? do i simply mail my entire climate cluster to them and pay $49 and they'll replace all my dead bulbs?

Thanks,
Sid

 

By the time you have removed your cluster, a few more screws and you'll be staring at the bulbs.

There are a number of threads on how to replace bulbs, what bulbs to use etc........

 

thanks chris but i saw how you have to bend the lcd panel to get to those bulbs. i'll pass on that... not worth messing up...

 

i would honestly love if you told me what thread shows me the bulbs sizes or which bulbs im suppose to buy cause my cluster is dead, and i could not find one thread actually telling it

 

I suggest going to lextech and reading the instructions, they are pretty specific to ensure satisfaction on both parties sides. If your back lighting is out, you can just replace bulbs. My needles are starting to go, so I might send the cluster over to get everything done one of these days.

 

Do you know by any chance where I can get those replacement bulbs ??!

 

i had a extra climate control so i took the chance to learn/try to change my own lcd/bulbs. i bought the lcd that came with bulbs on ebay for like 20 bucks i think. got my solder gun out and did the job and everything worked! by the way i only have soldered stuff on my rc car car so i'm sure you can do it! lol

 

If you're going to replace stock bulbs with stock bulbs you might as well do it yourself. If you want LED's and all that fancy stuff send it to them. Go to their forum and keep reading.

 

this is what i used when i did mine a couple of months ago

 

FYI................. the MOST difficult part of replacing your bulbs, needles, or anything in your cluster, is pulling the wiring harness plugs out of the back of the cluster. There are three of them, and they are a major PITA to get out.

There is no LCD panel to bend, just 14 phillips screws, and three tabs to pop off on a circuit board. A child could do it.

I have taken mine in and out swapped bulbs around about ten times with no damage to anything.

Here's links to the bulbs sizes for you gauge cluster, center console, and shifter. Just sack up and do it, you can always put it back if you get scared, hit me up if you need a pep talk first.

I just replaced all 8 of them and I don't remember having to bend anything...

 

I sent my climate control unit to lextech. After only 6 months the bulb for the rear defroster button is out. I barely night drive too so the lights are almost never on

 

rofl This should be the SC forum motto.

The only better than that advice is a (and that's just because I have a strange affinity for them... ok I've said too much - just do it)

 

Do it yourself. Seriously. I don't care how retarded you are when it comes to electronics. You can still do it quicker and it will work for a while longer.
