Dash lights
Merry Christmas!
I've got a bulb out in my dash. Actually, it's the one that illuminates the left side of my speedometer, etc. Anybody ever had to change one of these? It's a 97 (old body style) F250. I have no idea how to even get to the burned bulb, much less what bulb to replace it with. Any ideas?
Thanks,

Yea,
I had to replace one on my 97 f50 also. Start on the passenger side and snap off the long xlt trim piece, take out the philips screws as you see em. take off the steering colum trim plate, more philips, i dont remember if i had to drop my steering colum or not but the speedo will come out in one unit, its tight with cable and all. the buld snap in to the back onto a wire board, the bulb that is in close proximtiy to the dark spot on the speedo is probably the one, look at it and make sure its ng, then replace it. good luck
