I had a check engine light that suddenly went away.. Ok.

So I went ahead and took my code reader and viola. There are 2 codes. But the problem is my engine light, light bulb, is burnt.

Does anyone know where I can buy replacement bulbs? I had already replaced the gauge lights to LED's and I know they were T1.5 on SuperBrightLeds.com
but I checked the other bulbs and they were REALLY tiny.

Does anyone know where I can find them, what size is the twist lock base? Etc.


Thanks guys! You all rock!

 

Are you sure it's the bulb? Sometimes the check engine light will turn off after a cycle but of course the code/s will be stored.

 

I swaped the bulbs and yes I am 100% sure its the bulb itself. It looks black compared to the others.

 

I do not know what size it is but have you looked closely to see if it has a code writen on it?

Other then that I'm sorry, just don't know.

 

i'm waiting on my replacement bulbs, so i'll have my cluster out pretty soon to look. In the mean time, post a pic of a bulb, perhaps sitting next to a t1.5

 

Thanks dude!

 

So do these T1.5 led light bulbs just plug and play? or do i need to do some conversion. My gauge cluster light on the right side is out and I want to just replace all the bulbs. How many are there and what sizes are they all so i can order everything at once.

Check this site out. Zack was a evom member here. I'm not sure if he's still here but I have a blue kit for my gauges and there still running strong. I've had mine a few years and I'm still happy I just ordered my HVAC lights from him too.

 

I took out the whole gauge cluster and took out the bulbs, they are all T1.5 bulbs.

4 X T1.5 replaces the gauges. Make sure they are the higher powered smd ones. Single works fine. No need for the 3 smd. I've tested both setups and there was no difference. The Needle uses light from these bulbs to light up and when the red hit it it turned reallly red and it looks awesome. My whole setup is red.

I mean ALL of them. I replaced them with Red T1.5's and the result was really great! I've almost every bulb the car to red which matches my deck and I love the color at night. For the HVAC you need the 3 smd T1.5 due to the spread of light since it shoots left + right + front. You really need these to be able to see anything at night.

 

PS: I fixed my service engine light problem. The bulb itself was not making contact and not lighting up.swaped it and now it works.

 

Tell me how the HVAC comes out. Im really interested in matching it red with the rest of the car.

 

Take out the 3 control knobs by pulling on them
remove the 2 screws
pull the cluster out , very easy to do just tug on it (put finger inside hole and pull)
remove 3 screws holding the plastic on top of the LEDs
pull the 3 led's out
replace with 3 SMD led (bright ones)

you won't be able to do a full test until night time. Almost impossible to see in daytime.


Very easy to do ! Good Luck!

 

Yes, like with these.... They also come in red, white, green, amber and UV. Spreads the light pretty evenly for leds and they are bright.

Look at the OZ Rally section on the site. I bought the blue kit. It looks like that. The clock looks just a bit fuzzy tho. It uses 2 filters inside the clock housing but it doesn't bother me too much. The kit is really easy to install. It took me about 45 minutes to do them all. I had to use some pliers (very carefully) to pull a few of the lights out. I like it a lot better than the stock look tho.
