Dash illumination bulbs MGZT MK1
 
The illuminations for my dash (Speedo, revs etc) is pretty weak. How do you go about replacing the bulbs? Also if someone could let me know the bulb type, I’ll be able to order some in before I remove the clocks.

Thanks
Eddie

I believe the 'bulbs' are actually SMD type LEDs, so quite a big soldering job to replace them, though 'weak' LEDs sounds like a supply voltage issue to me. Best talk to Rick-sta https://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/for...d.php?t=261301

Have you adjusted the brightness of them on the light switch?

I’ll probably put up with it then as it probably isn’t worth spending real money on (they’ll be plenty of other jobs in the future if my last rover is anything to go by!)

Tried the switch it’s on full…

Sometimes the dimmer control fails on low
