What is the part number of the small light bulb that is soldered onto the PCB board? Is it 12v? Can I replace it with one of the small light bulb, say, the one in the climate control unit? The size is roughly the same, just need to straighten up the legs.
The bulb is smaler than the CC bulb I think, and probably less wattage also. In the past I've been able to find the smallest 12 V bulbs at Radio Shack
12V 60mA
Microlamps (2-Pack) Model: 272-1092 | Catalog #: 272-1092 $1.79 for two

This bulb is also a suitable replacement for the $19 bulb used in Volvo seat heater switch illumination!
