Hey if anyone can help me out quickly i would greatly appreciate it! I looked in the FAQs but didn't find the size of the bulbs that go behind the digital climate control. Those little rascals are darn fragile, i killed two of them today trying to test to see if one was working. If anyone knows where what size they are and where i can get them i would appreciate it. I checked the Pep Boys here but they don't have them..

Also, i just remembered that i forgot to re-attach the hose thing that connects to the CLimate control panel. What does this thing do and is it ok to leave off for now?

Thanks

 

I don't know which they are, but if you can take a photo of them with a ruler for scale, and host it somewhere, I'm sure most of us would be able to tell you.

 

I'm sure someone has already either replaced these with LEDs or just replaced them. They're the bulbs that light up the buttons on the climate control unit. There's four of them and theres a brown base and a blue rubber cap on them. They're smaller than the 194s.

 

Well, take your pick, you can wait for someone that just so happens to have replaced theirs before, or you could've taken a pic, hosted it, and I probably could have told you.

 

dammit, just so happens that i let someone borrow my digicam yesterday.

How about the hose behind the climate control? Is it ok to leave un attached for now?

 

Here are some pics taken from Zach Brown's how to page. These are the bulbs that i'm trying to get a number for. Anyone know what the bulb number is and where i can get some?




Thanks

 

I got the bulbs from a Nissan Dealer. It's probably a normally stocked item. The hose just connects to a sensor for the climate control. I would leave it off and put it back when you get the bulbs in. Don't forget the ashtray clip, if you lost it get another from Nissan too.
Good luck.

 

Thanks kmax!! So i guess Nissan is the only place that sells them? Them ash tray clips are a pain also, spent 15 minutes looking for one today! I should pick up a few in case.

 

I don't think Radio Shack sells them. I replaced my bulbs this past summer and if I remember correctly Nissan was the easiest place to find them. Also, my bulbs stopped working after I aborted a mission to take the upper A/C vent out. I had it out slightly, changed my mind and startied banging it back in. After that the bulbs were out, so be careful when you put it back together.

 

they kinda look similar to the bulbs behind my dash... #74 from sylvania... but i can't really tell from the pic. sorry, i wish i could be of more help. i too want to do this project... but that stuff make me nervous...
