Need GM Delco radio replacement light bulbs - any ideas where to purchase? Michael

You will need to remove the panel and also may need to remove its back cover to find them. Some of these bulbs are replaceable twist-in mini-bulbs (replacements can be hard to find - an AC Delco dealer/repair shop may help), but some are soldered in. GM has a bad habit of only saying "replace the panel" since they will not bother with replacing the bulbs.

The bulbs in the control head for the heater/ac are nor serviced by GM but I think you can purchase them at radio shack if you can get the head out and apart I am pretty sure you can replace them.

turn on headlight see if radio screen light up and instrument light if not turn ajustable dimmer light
if nothing happen then there is no bulb for it need radio repair
hope it helps

You have to enter the theft code which was set into the radio. The owners manual will tell you how AS LONG AS YOU HAVE THE CODE. If you don't have the code, any GM dealer will help you out and call in to get your code. They will want to make sure you own the vehicle.

The radio display lights in this Delco radio are tiny incandescent bulbs that are soldered to the front circuit board of the radio, the radio must be removed from the car, the radio chassis covers removed to expose circuit the boards and the bulbs replaced, they are burned out. This requires allot of skill and the right tools, a low temperature soldering pencil a solder suction gun and new bulbs, they are available from Radio Shack the part number is #7219 (12 volt 60ma)

Hello
I have repaired these burnt out display bulbs (3 of them) in GM Delco radio's, it is not a simple repair by any means, the radio must be removed from the car and then the radio chassis taken apart, the very tiny bulbs (size of a pencil point) are soldered to the front of the radio's main circuit board for the display, this job requires special pin point cordless low heat solder gun and a printed circuit board solder removal vacuum, The GM dealer does not service these bulbs, all they will do is remove the radio and send it out for repair to a GM radio repair center, if you do wish to attempt the replacement of the display bulbs they are a 12 volt 60ma, you will need 3 for the display, you can buy them from Radio Shack, the Radio Shack part # is #7219. You can also remove the Radio and send it in yourself for replacement of the display bulbs, this is what I recommend, if you damage the circuit board by applying to much heat the radio is so much junk.

These bulbs are not serviceable.Only a radio service dealer can repair radios.Even the G.M.dealers send all there radios out for repair.

the switches in the steering wheel do not have bulbs, the switches have LED which lights up.
so if the lights in the switches are not working you'll need to replace the switches.
