Guest fuki Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 Does anybody have experience at replacing the bulb behind the heating fan control on the dashboard of a 1998 Subaru Legacy 2.5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Commuter Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 Yes. Many of us. Myself included. Go to the archives <a href="http://pub1.ezboard.com/fultimatesubarumessageboardsfrm6.showMessage?topicID=46.topic" target="top">here</a>. Lots of good info. There are also other links around. Scoobymods in another. Commuter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ShawnW Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Just did this on Sadie's 95 Legacy, thanks to CincyBuckeye and Russ for writing these up. Having both writeups let me decide which bulbs and which procedure to use and I liked that. Shawn I went with the Radio Shack bulbs and bic pen pieces on this and its great, $3.25 in parts and I have a spare bulb now for later since they come in 2 pks.

Guest rsc95legacy Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 To All: Removing cable at the vent end is a great tip. To make replacement easier, attach a 3-5 foot piece of flexible wire, heavy fish line or nylon cord to the end you disconnected. Be sure to cover the connection with tape if it could hang up on anything. You can still get the control unit out to replace the bulbs but you will have an easier time getting the disconnected end back in place by just pulling on your "fish" line.

Guest flash Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Are the heated seat buttons back lit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Commuter Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Yes... You'll need the Radio Shack 7219 bulb to replace it. The link I gave up above has a couple of posts about opening up the switch and replacing the bulb. Commuter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
