My clock back lighting is not working, I have changed the two bulbs but they don't light up, the clock is working just the globes don't light up. Does this mean I have to get another clock or is there something else I can do? Thanks.[/u]
Sounds more like the illumination wire has broken somewhere, would check to see if that's got voltage before replacing the clock.
don't know what Tom's on about, it will be the bulbs that have blown, 99.9% sure lol . . . . .just replace them .
He's already changed the bulbs with no effect...

sorry mate my bad, i'll give myself a warning. . .
Haha, no worries.
Are you using the right type of bulbs? If I remember correctly the bulbs in that display are not the same as others that size, the contacts are in a different place on the holders. I think that's why I ended up paying something like £7 per bulb from the dealers years ago.
Try turning the bulb holders a bit
Give it a slap they normally come on that way!!

Your right I got the wrong bulbs, at a glance they look right but they have different contacts. I will get the right ones and try them Thanks.
Clock and temp gauge are working again, all I had to get was a couple of tiny globe inserts from the dealer, they gave me a refund on the ones that were wrong and the inserts only cost a couple of dollars, so it all turned out good. Thanks guys.
Bastards, I asked for the holders and they said they only do the bulb and holders together that are soldered together so you can't just change the bulb.
Have you got a part number for what you got?
1.2w wedge globe. Part No NG-5301. they just push into the black plastic holders.
