- Open the storage compartment beneath the temp controls and remove the screw at the top.
- Now remove the temp control panel and the LCD display by prying them loose from the bottom up. (They are all one piece)
- Remove the white connector from the back of the panel.
- Locate the burned out bulb and twist the bulb housing 1/4 turn to the left to unlock it.
- Remove the bulb housing with a small set of pliers after unlocking it.
- undo the wires around the bulb housing and pay attention to how they are looped around the housing.
- Trim the plastic away from the bulb and wiring
- Cut the wires down to 1.5 inches long
- Strip the wires down to bare copper all the way to the base of the bulb. Twist each individual wire to make the strands rigid.
- Remove ALL the stuff that looks like hot glue at the base of the bulb. Be careful not to break the contacts.
- Insert the bulb all the way into the grey bulb housing. This one will stick out a little further than the original.
- Wrap the twisted copper strands around the bulb housing similar to the way it was in step 6. Its ok if you have more windings than the original.
- Replace the bulb housing into the panel.
- Put it all back together...
