'90 Bronco II factory AM FM cassette radio.Works but the light illuminating the station display is out. How do I pull the radio from the dash and then how do I replace the bulb?
Do you know the bulb # so i can purchase the bulb before I pull the radio?
Thanks, Steve.
Radio display light out. Help?
WOW that question brings out memories from 1991 when I tried this. I got the bulb out, but could not find a replacement (no internet back then). I just put in a Sony cd player and called it good.
As far as getting the radio out, take off the trim around the radio and vents. If I remember right, its a combination of screws and those pop-outs. I cannot remember if the radio itself has a special way of releasing it like all the others ive installed or not.
The radio has to be take apart and in the front behind the face is the little light,
Personally I would buy a new radio, but thats me. Good luck

There is a special tool to take the radio out of the dash. You can go buy it or make one out of a coat hanger(metal one), or use nails. Put them in the four holes in the face of the deck(make sure thier in far enough), then pull them twords eachother wile puling it from the dash. Good luck with that, sometimes they wont come out especialy if they are old.

bulb is available from one place in the free world. Dealership. it was only about $2.50 or so when I bought the last one. I was formerly in electronic repair business and figured I could find one on my own,,,,, close but no cigar. Every one you find that'll fit in the holder is either wrong voltage or wrong luminescence.
